a man after God's own heart
Okay, this may sound strange, but this goes for men too.... as in "a woman after God's own heart". One thing I have discovered is that when you set your sights on someone who tries to please God with everything that they are and then somewhere (it will happen because they're human) down the road, they disappoint God with their actions, words, or lack thereof, their heart breaks. This is a person that you should never let go of. This person will be a great partner for the rest of your life because not only will they follow the path that God has set out for them, they will challenge you to do the same. And who is better than two people who love each other that love God? The more that those two seek after what God wants for them, then they will draw closer to one another. That is an amazing concept. I mean logically, I knew this to be true.... but when I heard the demonstration of the triangle effect with a husband and a wife and God being the center of their relationship, it made total sense to me. I mean, I knew this analogy but after reading about the kind of love that God wants me to have, I totally get it! Well, you can imagine that God is at the top of the triangle. The husband is one of the other corners of the triangle and the wife is in the last corner of the triangle. When both of these people seek to be closer to God and want more of their life to be the way that God wants it to be then naturally they start drawing closer to each other. I LOVE THIS CONCEPT!!! I may be single right now, but I am falling in love with God more by the minute and I cannot stop reading about Him. Because of this, I know that if I have the desire to get married but I patiently wait for my future husband in the meantime love God more.... I know that I will draw closer to my husband too. I have to remember that this is NOT the reason to draw closer to God. I am drawing closer to God because I want to know God. My future marriage is just a massive bonus! So, seek after someone who does not want to disappoint God. And if you want that, be that person that seeks after God to not disappoint Him. You will be amazed at what you learn and find out. I know I am learning a lot and I cannot wait to share with you what I learn in the future.
