I’m just out of my league this weekend and Atche Cher knows why…
He who keeps stepping on my feet when we dance
He who plays the piano for me
He who introduced me to FTTS and their music
He who loves giving me funny image animations
He who made my tears fall just like that
He whom the Gods have written to be with someone
He whose hand I’m letting go…
Then I read this really nice poem…
I like the last line try to read that….
All your life, you had specific dreams about what
your family life would be like when you finally
married.
You were so intent on what you wanted, you even
made a list of qualities and characteristics you were
looking for in a spouse, in a home, in your job, in
your children.
But time passed, and that person you were so
intent on didn't come along.
All of your friends married, had children, had
beautiful homes.
And still you were single. You prayed and prayed
and prayed for that person to come along, but nothing
happened.
You had a good job. You served in your church.
You spent daily time with the Lord in prayer and
studying the Word.
You dedicated your life to serving God in every
way possible, but still nothing.
So you decided to take matters into your own
hands, and you began an active search for a mate.
And within a short period, you met someone who
almost fit the bill.
Almost.
Sure, there were a few things Missing, a few rusty
spots in that person's character.
But, after all, no one is perfect.
Maybe your goals were too high. Maybe you'd been
asking for the impossible.
Maybe this was the person God wanted for you so
your character could grow through dealing with his or her
failings.
Even though it often seems that God is slow to
answer prayers, no matter whether it's about a
mate, or a job, or our children, or our finances, or
anything else, we have to remember that God
doesn't wear a watch.
Nor does He look at our human calendars. He sees
with eternal eyes.
He operates on an eternal timetable, according to
His plan and His schedule.
If God seems to be running late, don't get impatient
and run ahead of him.
Wait for the Lord's timing in everything.
To the single folks out there, this is for you.
Single means you have the time to grow and be the
person you want to be.
Single gives you space to grow.
Sometimes, it is harder to grow when you are too
close to someone.
Trees are planted far apart so they can spread their
branches and become strong as they mature.
Single means learning to live by yourself.
However, that is no more difficult than learning to
live with somebody else.
Single means freedom.
You are free to spend a week's vacation on the
beach, to take computer courses, to work late on
an interesting project, to spend the day in bed
with a good book or simply with a person who has
read one.
Single means learning not to need a man/woman to
make your life meaningful but learning to live with
a man/woman because you want to be with
him/her.
Single means that sometimes you will wonder why
you will bite your lip and feel wistful and wonder if
marriage is better.
Ironically, yet quite happily, single is feeling
good about being in control of your life.
It is liking and respecting who you are and why you
are.
Single is realizing that being married is not
necessarily better, it is merely different.
Single means that there could be something
wonderful around the corner and you can take advantage of
it.
Being single means you are free to love again.
