Happy Friday to all!
Again, I apologize for my blog absence. I have been doing a lot of thinking & praying. It's been amazing actually... a blessing. God has a divine plan and a funny way of doing things. My mom mentioned the other day that God is a jealous God and it had me thinking... I spend my mornings in worship but that is all I devoted to him. How foolish of me. I have been amazed at how much I have grown closer to Him in the past two weeks with prayer, deep thought, reading 3 christian love books. This week alone has been a clear sign that God is good. I have completely put my trust in Him. Given it ALL to him and have been comforted. I realized I have no control over what happens, whether one day that secret agent man and I will be together again or if there is someone else God has waiting for me. I will rejoice in either situation. Is it hard? Heck yes! Do I break down still? Absolutely! But... Faith makes things possible, not easy (thank you Cara for that quote).
So why has it been a blessing one might ask? Well I shall tell you. For the first time in my life I completely understand myself. I could never pinpoint past relationship problems...I thought it was always them. Me have problems? WHAT? Wake up Michelle! I have finally pinpointed MY problems and how to correct and change them. That's the beauty...YOU CAN CHANGE BEHAVIORS! I have learned so much about what it means to be truly in love. To truly give yourself, your heart to someone. And that a relationship involves two people working together, selflessly, patiently, willingly. I also learned that my Pride got in the way of arguments and I have hurt many people because of it and it has left unresolved conflicts that led to continuous fights. I am seeing a true relationship, a relationship committed to each other and to God, in a whole new light. And I love it. I get it. It makes perfect sense.
Thank you to all for your continuous support and prayers. Love you all more than words can express! Have a fabulous weekend!
