God Works In Mysterious Ways...(To the men)
...I'll say! For those of you who read this (which is very few, I'm assuming) can tell that my recent posts have been the focus on a Godly romance, rather than a wordly romance. More specifically, letters here and there to my future spouse and allowing God to speak into me His desires for me. As a sporadic blogger, I never thought anyone read anything on here except my parents...but just last night, God opened my eyes and showed me that He has been working through me, even when I didn't know it.
I received a message from a reader in a different country that has read my prayers and notes to my future husband, completely amazed that his future wife could be praying for him, despite how unworthy he may feel. I find this so remarkable because the basis of most of these posts have been from a brokenness in my heart, yet God was still able to use that for His glory. Crazy, huh? So, to change things up, I want to write to the men this time.
Getting a little personal here, I can tell you I've had my fair shares of feeling unworthy...not good enough...whatever. In fact, it's a constant battle I have every day just to tell myself, "You are worthy, you are loved". And thank God, that He is working in me still. So, just know that I can relate...any woman can. For any guy reading this, thinking that he could never have a love so divine because of things he's done in the past, or currently dealing with...know that that is Satan speaking lies to you and not the truth. The first truth is that if you take these things to Him, you will experience a love greater than you've ever experienced or could imagine. He will transform you. Perhaps He currently is or already has. The second truth of this is that God wants you to know that He is preparing both of you this very instant, for a love He has created just for you. As a godly man searching after God's own heart, you will be loved by a woman who doesn't keep a record of your wrongs (1 Corinthian 13:4-8). She will see you for who you ARE and not who you WERE. She will be a woman after God's own heart...a woman of grace and forgiveness.
The third truth: Remember that you are worthy. You are loved. "You are loved more than you will ever know by someone who died to know you."-Romans 5:8...Keep walking with God and let Him reveal His perfect love for you through HIM. I understand that feeling of feeling like a "failure" because you might slip here and there...but don't let the enemy win this battle. "The Lord will fight for you, you need only to be still." Exodus 14:14...You can overcome this and experience what God has in store for you.
I want to leave you with an incredible video and song that has blessed me tremendously.
This all came to mind at the last second, but I felt that God wanted me to share it...God Bless :)
