..today I chose to look up a poem that would express what I have been trying to hold on to since a very wise friend told me the following a little over a week ago... " the man God has planned for you will woo you (to seek the affection, favour, or love of (a woman) with a view to marriage), he will cherish you and respect you... you do not need to try to impress him or try to use some lure to "catch" him, you just have to trust your Father in Heaven... and be who He has made you...."
I knew that this was right.. but, with an earthly father who didn't know how to love and a husband who just walked away, I have been struggling with this concept for far too long...this was the last truth on my road to recovery I had to embrace... I knew it was true.....I believed it... now I just had to live it...
I am happy to say that I am living it, by His grace.. I have gone off any dating websites I was on... I am going to wait for my man... in the mean time.. my Father, the King is all I need, He has filled my heart with so much love, I am good on my own... here is the poem I just had to change it a little to make it work for me ;)
I'm a daughter of the Lord
a Princess in His eyes
I'm someone that He so adores
He hears me when I cry
forever and a day I'll worship
my Father, the graceful King
the Creator of all life
the Creator of everything
to Him I give my loving heart
to Him I give my mind
He loves me when I fall apart
He loves me ALL the time
He's worthy of my everything
He's worthy of my love
He's worthy of the songs I sing
Oh Father in Heaven above!
He saved me from the hands of death
He holds me all together
to me, He gave His very breath
so that I could live forever!
If to Him, I'm worth so much
that he would die for me,
why should I give myself to one,
who doesn't seem to see..
so today, instead of feeling sorry for myself for being alone this weekend, I went to watch my little Godson's hockey game... I had him over a little after school yesterday and I am going to be more present in his life again, just one of the people I can invest my "free" time in... what a blessing...
there is a time for everything, there was a time to mourn, and He carried me through it... He taught me how much He loved me... and that I am indeed a Princess... there is a time to bless and a time to be blessed... it feels that I am always being blessed... I guess it is because I am a Princess... Praise Him from whom all blessings flow.... Soli Deo Gloria!!!!!! To Him alone be the Glory forever and ever!!!
