So I have been writing letters to someone I do not know yet.
Someone who God has prepared for me.
That someone is my wife.
Or future wife, rather.
I got the idea from a sister of mine that has been my friend since I was 12.
She’s a brilliant women of God and I love her dearly.
Thanks, Chelse.
For those who know me, you understand that
I am what you call a “hopeless romantic.”
I love love.
And when I love I give everything.
Because why hold back a gift as beautiful as love.
The only use love can ever have is to be given.
So give it all.
Anyhow, I digress.
Before I wrote the first letter I expected the activity to be a
fun thing I could do for whoever I ended up with.
Just another romantic thing that would “blow away” the girl I chose.
Wow, was I wrong.
Immediately after I wrote the first letter, God started me on a spiritual journey.
It changed everything about how I view marriage.
This is not a joke.
God took away any attraction to any women I see.
Like, no longer do I desire the outward appearance of women.
Lust has no place in my heart any longer.
Praise praise praise God.
The reason?
God told me about my wife.
The one He has already chosen for me.
The one He had chosen for me before I was even born.
If He has chosen her for me than she is already mine.
Right now.
And I am hers.
Right now.
Does that not blow your mind?
Do you know how much that solves?
Single people. Hear me.
God has someone chosen for you right now.
In this moment.
Set apart uniquely for you!
You do not have to seek.
You do not have to worry about waiting.
He or she is yours.
Now listen to this.
If that is true. If they are already yours.
If you are set apart for them and they for you.
Then to spend any time pursuing or seeking another person is cheating.
It is adultery.
Whether you are with your future wife/husband or not.
Whether you know who they are or you don’t.
It is cheating.
If God has already chosen them to be yours for eternity
than why waste time with someone else?
I can no longer believe that it is God’s desire that we “test out” people
romantically before finding the “one.”
Do you truly believe God wants you to experience
multiple persons before you find your actual love?
Because you do know that the entire institute of marriage is only created
to be an example of Christ’s relationship to the Church.
With our relationship to God.
That is literally the only reason marriage exists.
With that, do you truly believe God wants us to experience or seek
other gods or persons or idols before we finally find Him?
If you do you are dead wrong.
In the same way, it can not be His desire that we seek other persons
before we finally find our spouse.
God will not let you waste time with other people
if you are diligently seeking your future spouse.
The first thing you should do as soon as you begin to feel attraction or desire
for a person is to separate yourself from them and diligently ask God,
“Father, is this person going to be my future husband/wife?”
He will answer.
God is not going to let you choose someone who He has not chosen for you
if you are truly seeking the one He has chosen for you.
That is a big if.
Because you can choose wrong.
*SPOILER*
You can end up with someone who you are not supposed to be with.
You can settle.
If you are not seeking the person God has chosen for you.
The Enemy does not want you to end up with the man or women God desires for you.
Because He knows that will bring you joy and bring Him glory.
That is why God has chosen them.
Your joy and His glory.
The Enemy will try anything to separate you from them.
Know your weakness and your strength.
If you are alive, you desire a human connection.
You desire someone to fill your soul with love.
The only options you have are God and people.
Sometimes God just desires you to only desire Him.
God bless the people He has chosen for that.
But mostly, God has chosen people to share love with another person.
To make two people one for their entire lives.
Hallelujah.
Because the Enemy knows the holy desire that God has given you,
he will try to taint it and twist it.
With lust. With sexual desires. With other people.
Even if they are Godly people.
If they are not who God has chosen for you the Enemy can use it to destroy you.
Guard your hearts.
Make a decision today.
Sit down right now and pray for your Father to take away
any desire for anyone other than your future spouse.
Waiting becomes so much easier when you realize that they are already yours.
And where frustration for waiting used to be, excitement for what will be explodes.
Do not waste time.
Do not settle.
Your future husband/wife is somewhere right now waiting for the day
that you appear in their lives and become one with their souls.
Do not suffer them any longer with seeking a love that is not theirs.
They do not deserve it.
Women:
He deserves you.
And you deserve her.
Men:
She deserves you.
And you deserve him.
Go write a letter.
Tell your future spouse how much you love he/her.
Amen. You lovers, you.
