I want to be married...
Its been about day 5 that I've been in this pseudo depression. This is the first time I'm actually talking about it. I miss being in a relationship. I enjoy being affectionate and having someone to hold. I've never felt this strongly about this. I know I'm not alone and I have God but its a different type of relationship. Its different when you are the groom not the bride. I don't know... I just wish she would hurry up and come introduce herself. I know there is purpose in this but that doesn't make it hurt less.

Man do I know how you feel! It's a tough spot to be in, but like you said there is a purpose. The important thing is to not let your heart get overwhelmed. It's easy to do with the desires of your heart. Trust me, I'm in the same boat with wanting a baby. It grabs a hold of you sometimes and you just ache for it. Todd you're an amazing person, and I've seen so much change in you lately. God's got someone absolutely incredible for you, and when you're ready He will bring her. Trust that right now He's chipping off some off the hard edges and softening you for her. I know this sounds silly but think of Esther. There was a process of beautification before she even met her king. God purposed for her to be perfect for her husband, and he's doing the same for you and your wife. It's better this way, because when you do meet her and you do become one it's going to be much easier for the both of you that God's already worked on you both so much. So in saying all of that, give your heart a rest. Rest in knowing He's got it taken care of. Savor every day between now and the time you meet her, knowing that every day serves a purpose of bringing you closer together and in setting good foundation for the rest of your life. I've had to do the same with having a baby. Every day that I'm not pregnant is a day to work on my own issues, so when that baby comes he or she will have a restored mother who can give 100% to them, versus the broken mother I would have been had it happened a year or two ago. Any ways, hope this helped.
ReplyDeleteHello Todd,
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel man. I dated a lot in high school and freshman year of college but I realized that my relationships were not leading towards marriage. To be frank, they were all about lust and the novelty of having a girlfriend. Over the last three years, I have been looking for the right Godly girl to enter my life. I have made some awesome friends but have not found the right girl yet. Regardless, I am overjoyed that eventually I will meet her.
My advice to you is to continue praying to God for strength in this area and also to enjoy the gift of singleness that you have at this stage in your life. Peace be with you,
Tristan
Thanks Tristan
