OMW…..I found Mr. Right…..I found my prince. You would never guess how though. I was just sitting around in my Indian princess dress and he came up to me and told me how beautiful I am to him and how much his heart longs to be my husband and me his bride. He even said that he had been praying for me and telling his father how great I am. He got down on his knees and said that I would no longer have to date, socialize, or communicate with carbon copies of him to appease my boredom or to quench my thirsty desire for attention of the short-live compliments from ‘sorta, kindas.’
You know, “he’s sorta kinda right, but sorta kinda wrong”, his first name “Luke” his last name “Warm”. He said no more settling for false companionship. I don’t have to lie in the embrace of another’s arms, attempting to find some closeness but have feelings so far, far apart cause, “I just want to be held.” No more almost sessions of almost coming close, passing winks and buying drinks, and “Im’ma Im’ma flirt.” Who flirts with the ideology of, “Can you just tell me how much I can get away with and still be saved?”
I was shocked….How could this man know me….I had only seen him in passing, here and there, but he had followed me all the way to India and now he is proposing to me. Must people would be totally freaked out by this but I told him yes! I promised to be his princess until death do we part and even in Heaven with our Lord. I know you are probably wondering have I completely lost my mind, but I haven’t. Let me tell you about him and then you’ll understand why I so quickly accepted his proposal without even thinking twice about what tomorrow will bring.
So, if we could role-play, He would be Abraham, and I would be Sarah, or he could be Issac and I could be Rebecca. I am bone of his bone, flesh of his flesh, made up of his rib, second Adam. And once we met, like electrons … I was bound to his nucleus, completely indivisible, atom.
We even speak the same math- 1+1+1=3, which really equals 1 if you add them. (The Trinity)
I was created in HIS image, and I have the ability to reflect, project, and even detect the SON.
If I were to explain what he looks like, I would have to say he looks like a star.
A Son of the sun.
I get energy simply from the light he shines on me.
I need him in order to complete my photosynthesis.
I knew he was the one because when he spoke, it reminded of Solomon’s wisdom.
His ability to lead reminded me of Moses.
His faith reminds me of Abraham.
His confidence in GOD’s word reminds me of Daniel.
His inspiration reminds me of Paul.
His heart for God reminds me of David, though it should because he came from the linage of King David.
His attention to detail reminds me of Noah.
His integrity reminds me of Joseph.
… And his ability to abandon his own will reminds me of the disciples.
But, His ability to love selflessly and unconditionally reminds me of Christ….
That’s how I knew him….He was Christ. He was my Bridegroom who had been waiting on me to prepare my heart for him. I had been worrying about getting married and what it would look like. How would I know when Mr. Right was the one or if I would be the last of my cousins to get married? Jesus came to me as a sat dressed in my best Indian dress and proposed to me and said when the man that is for me comes he will look like him. Beautiful in every way draped in the word of God. So I will no longer get graded down from ‘so called’ friends and family talks about the concern of my biological clock when I serve the author of time. Who is not subject to time, but I am subject to HIM. He has the ability to stop, fast forward, pause, or rewind at any given time.
I desire His WILL above mine so even if he calls me to a life of single-ness, my heart is content with him, the one who is sent. You, JESUS are the greatest love story ever told, the greatest love ever known. You, JESUS are forever my judge and I am forever your witness. And I pray that I’m always found on a mission about my Father’s business. JESUS I write my vows to you this day, “I’ll always be YOURS and I’ll always wait for YOU, Lord- more than the watchmen wait for the morning. I will wait for you. I want make a step without you first ordering me to do so. I will tell your people…my brothers and sisters…just how great it is to be married to the King of Kings….Lord thank for your Gift of Salvation (Life)…is enough for me.
Phi 1:20-21. “As it is my eager expectation and hope that I will not be at all ashamed, but that with full courage now as always Christ will be honored in my body, whether by life or by death. For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain.
