Oh so Faitfully Waiting...

I stumbled upon a blog through another friend that really reiterated what I said in my last post, that God has that special person out there for me.

It's funny because when your single, the first two things people say to you are 1) Hello and 2) Are you dating anyone?. Why do I have to be dating anyone at 27 if God isn't going to let me just marry anyone. What if God has that person picked out and already in my life but we may not pursue each other because were dating someone that God doesn't have picked out for us? I know some may think I sound unrealistic but that's okay.

As Lindsee Lou put it:

It's no secret that I believe Him for that desire, but that it's just a matter of time. His time, not mine. And although I'm afraid my timetable probably looks terribly different than His, I am still hopeful that He will not fail me. That is if I hope in Him, not my circumstances. However, it's also no secret that even though it's not always easy to wait, and sometimes it's frustrating, confusing or lonely, He's in the midst of preparing me for something greater than myself. Something I can't explain and may never know this side of heaven.

I will continue to pray each and every day for that Godly man that God has prepared for me. I won't look for him physically but seek him in my heart.

Ah, you are only 27! You are right. God has plenty of time and it seems the older you are the shorter the courtships.
