Dear One,
Its 1:03am Saturday morning august 2nd. Ive already learned a lesson on patience as my car is in our ditch out front. Each day brings another lesson to the surface...apparently driving backwards into your driveway when you've just woken up in the wee hours of the morning isnt pure genius. Sometimes waiting for you feels like slamming down on the gas and revving backwards hoping to slip between the ditches and onto the driveway. It makes your heartbeat quicken and at times I have the fleeting thought that maybe, just maybe i wont make it. But to be honest 99% of the time its full gas, straight back, no worries. I've got confidence I'll make it. Im thankful that when it comes to you, my confidence is in a perfect God, who never misses the driveway. Im human, thats why Im allowing this huge choice to be done by a God who unlike me has no blind spots. I can go full throttle because Gods steering. I pray for you, i smile in anticipation for you. Ive had a security system installed in my heart, no intruders shall enter. Im not worried that we wont find one another. I cant wait, yet my God has given me peace for here, now. We will be a mighty team, wont you wait for me? Fall in love with God. From that love you will find me. And i you. Receive the joy of waiting! Its so glorious. Today i also saw something i had never seen before. Two yellow squashes conjoined together! Surprisingly thats not too uncommon. It made me think, soon my love we will be growing toward God side by side. Then we will grow together! As we can be stronger, supportive and bigger than ever together. Wait for me, but continue to grow regardless! I adore you and am waiting.
-Excited yellow squash.
WAIT…just DON’T WAIT… (ENCOURAGEMENT FOR ALL!!!)
I wanted to share something I had thought of recently, some things are misinterpreted when it comes to “waiting” for the “one.” It isn’t necessarily saying, though its assumed “just be miserable for a while, just stay where you are and sit like a good little kid, until your rewarded for your silence.” Hahaha! Noooo! Its pretty much the opposite!!
Psalm 19:8
The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
Psalm 20:5
We will shout for joy when you are victorious and will lift up our banners in the name of our God. May the LORD grant all your requests.
Psalm 30:11
You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy,
Psalm 51:12
Restore to me the joy of your salvation and grant me a willing spirit, to sustain me.
Waiting for Gods timing is totally a time of JOY! Weird huh? Once we become mold-able unto Him…he gives us the desires of our hearts, but we have to be willing to accept His will, time, blessings!
Psalm 37:4
Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart
“delight” means to be “moldable” so in other words…putty, clay… when we are the clay, we can be formed!! And our desires will become intune with HIS desires for us! (YESSS!!!!!!)
Then you can get up, dance, live, enjoy the beauty of His presence. We don’t have to wait to live…(may seem extreme but it’s easy to do…Im guilty!!) for that special someone, we don’t have to hold our breath, the days are evil, they are already being filled by temptations left and right to steal away our time!!!
• Ephesians 5:16
making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.
Lets not allow our time to be taken up worrying about the who, when, where, whys and hows!!
Matthew 6:34
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
He/she, is out there!!! If God wills it! But no matter the case, you will be complete. Two broken pots don’t make a whole pot, they make two broken pots… So don’t wait to get it together TO BE “FILLED WITH GOD” or get out there and serve Him to your fullest, till that “one” comes. The time is NOW!! THANK YOU GOD!!! THAT YOU GIVE US ALL WE NEED!!! YOU ARE SOOO BEYOND WORDS!I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"Come now, you who say, 'today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit'; whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Instead you ought to say, 'If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that."
-James 4:13-15 NKJ
Never forget to put God into your plans for he as put you in his. Trust his plans more than your own for he can see all the possibilities. Fallowing him just makes his task of guiding you to a better, joyful life easier.
"Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin."
-James 4:17 NKJ
You're right that we shouldn't sit and wait until we find the one God has planed for us to start searching for sanctification though the Lord.
Without trust in the Holy Spirit to keep us apprised of our actions and guide us, how are we to be ones who can appraise our partners of their actions and help guide them?
Thanks Samurai for your comment :) have we met? Have a blessed day!
