I used to think I had to settle. I remember years ago during my quiet time writing a list to God about what I desired in a future spouse. As the years went by, I grew tired of waiting on the Lord. I dated someone who I’d convinced myself was the one, but when I looked at the list of things I’d asked God for, he didn’t completely match. I convinced myself that I was being too picky and that I would never have what was on that list. So, I settled. I remember God asking me one morning during prayer, why I had asked Him for things on my list if I didn’t trust him to perform it? Honestly, I wanted to believe God so bad, but I was tired of waiting and hoping.
Fast forward to now, I look at Jacob and see my list, the very things I asked God for in a husband. No, he’s not perfect, neither am I, but God is. If you are single and believing God to send the one, keep believing. Don’t give up on your desires. God gave you the desire to be married. You don’t have to concoct your own blessing or force things to work; and you NEVER EVER have to settle simply because you are tired of waiting. ❤️ #CheersToFreedom#MyFreedomDiaries
