I was seated in my Thursday evening class and I happen to have such an amazing lecturer who I thank God for ☺☺☺. So as an ice breaker, she gave us a story about this young man who she really didn’t like back when she was young and never would consider as a husband because he did not fit her description of an ideal man. But guess what? At the end of the day, she has been married to this man for more than 30 years now.
This story got me thinking about us today. We all have specifications for that which we want. For example, I want a car. Specifically a Mercedes Benz CLS 500 or S500. God has put that desire in my heart, but maybe that’s not the one He wants to bless me with. It is the same thing when it comes to choice of life partner. We all have a specification of maybe that Tall Dark and Handsome man or that short curvaceous girl. But God knows what you need because it’s not about what you want but what you need.
I know what you are thinking. God says that He will fulfill our heart’s desire. Yes He does. Our problem usually is, we are fond of only quoting those parts of the verses that favour our needs at that particular point…
Psalm 37: 4-5 says; Delight yourself in the LORD, and He will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD; trust in Him, and He will act.
Delight in The Lord and commit yourself to Him..trust Him fully and He will work it all out for you….So don’t put God in your little box of thought because He is greater than you could ever imagine. Pray and ask and let Him respond like He always does.
You have a daddy who never fails..☺☺☺
