“God, where are you in this?” my heart cried silently. “I am your child. All my life, you know I have longed for something beautiful. I have searched for true love. Does a pure and perfect romance even exist in this dark world of lust and perversion and sin? Should I even dare to dream of something beyond the shallow, meaningless, cheap version of love I’ve known so far?”
Then came a soft, gentle tugging upon my heart. Suddenly I somehow knew that my life did not need to be this way and that God had something better for me. It was almost as if God Himself was reminding me, “I am the Author of True Love; I am the Creator of Romance.”
A quiet challenge deeply touched my spirit in that moment, as if God were tenderly standing before me, with tears of boundless love in His eyes, whispering to my heart, “You have searched for true love in your own way. But My ways are not your ways. I want to script a beautiful tale just for you, but first you must trust Me with the pen of this precious area of your life. Will you let Me write your love story?”
-Leslie Ludy, When God Writes Your Love Story
WHY I DON'T DREAD V.DAY (the way I used to) EVEN IF I'M SINGLE?
1. I already view Romance from a different perspective. Different means from God's perspective, that is what the Bible and not the hollywood, teleserye's, and what the most of the people in the world say about love.
2. I've had enough of years wanting and longing for the wrong kind of love from the wrong person at the wrong time.
3. I'm up to giving my heart to God, fully...(which is a long and tough journey) so that He can give it to the man of His choice for me.
4. God is the Author of My LIFE, that means He is also the Author of my LOVE STORY.
5. I'm not just "waiting "to become a boy's girlfriend, I'm "waiting" to become a man's wife.
“To wait for the right person, ultimately is to make oneself the right one for whoever God has prepared for you...”
