Dear Girl

Dear girl,
Do you know that you are not incomplete?
Do you know that all you need
is the One who loves you forever and ever and ever?
Do you know that no matter the man
and no matter the time
and no matter the amount of children you may have
you will still be responsible to
love the lord your God with all your heart and soul
and your mind and strength
which means every fiber of your being?
Did you know that a husband will never satisfy you?
Did you know that you will always have to fight for contentment
and satisfaction in the one who deserves your soul.
The only confident joy we can have is when we are
running with wild abandon
toward our creator.
You have so much love to give, so give it.
You have so much life to live, so please go out and live it.
You were meant to be in relationships with everyone
whom God has put around you. Love them, pour out your life to them
for the One who poured His out for you.
I love love and I love marriage as much as any of us.
I hold that paradigm in highest regard
Jesus loved me and that is beautiful
Husbands and wives were meant to preach that beautiful gospel with
their love and commitment.
But even if I am never part of that earthly show
I'm a participant in the marriage of the Lamb.
This is the will of God, your sanctification,
not your earthly companion fixation.
