To be honest, when I first met you, I thought you were just a pretty face. You had a gentle smile, always affirming anyone–even a stranger.
People would always peg you as the handsome prince charming, but I never did.
The looks didn’t really make up for the things that made my heart leap when I first started to notice. It was like a lightning bolt sent out of nowhere, as if that happened because Someone made me notice. The day it happened, I prayed to God that He would take it away because I don’t want to interfere in anyone’s relationship. Just thinking about it back then was so soul crushing. You are one of my siblings in Christ, after all.
I like you for your heart of service. The way you handle your workload is impressive; especially when that includes unruly children. You make everyone feel included, which affirms Jesus and His command to love your neighbor as yourself. You are a teamplayer, and I know anyone would be lucky enough to even know you firsthand. You put God first, your family second.
But now, your heart is broken.
I am writing this post anonymously not because of a personal agenda. I chose to write this because I want to be one of your encouragers in the faith. Because even though things did not work out with your “first love” , I can confidently say that God has your best interests at heart. You said that you want to hear His voice, so listen as I tell You of how God holds you in the palm of his hand. This heartbreak cannot compare for what’s to come.
I am not a fortune teller nor am I a prophet sent to you in 2019, but I am the daughter of our One True King. I know a man of faith such as yourself is better off with God’s best.
- Make sure to be patient this time, to wait on Him, to beg Him constantly for His presence.
I admit that I like you, but manipulating the situation in my favor is selfish. If God wills you to be my own, I would like to win it with God’s favor. So forgive me if ever I act like I don’t care. Forgive me for holding back–immensely. I am excited for what lies ahead for you–even if that includes me or not. I am blessed to have known a man of faith such as yourself.
