Many of you have seen and read the verses that I posted on Friday, December 4. I can honestly say that those verses are true!
Especially, Jeremiah 33:3:
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and show thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.
And Psalms 37:4-5:
Delight thyself also in the LORD: and He shall give thee the desires of thine heart. Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and He shall bring it to pass.
And here is the reason why:
Everyone that reads my blog can easily see what my heart's desire is. Well, a few months back or maybe even longer, the Lord put on my heart and my parents' heart a very special young man. Our families would see each other at the Sword of the Lord Conference, and I was a friend of his cousin through the blog world and now his sister, Rebecca. It's not that we have really talked or have known each other, but my family and I can see the Lord's hand in this from the beginning. This past Wednesday night, I specifically prayed that the Lord would do this for me for Christmas! I know that it may sound silly to some people, but I did! And when everything happened on Thursday, even though I had prayed for it to happen and even to happen before Christmas, I was in total shock that my prayers had been answered in such an amazing way! What a wonderful Lord we have!
I am so excited about what the Lord has done and is doing in our lives. Please pray for Jonathan and I as we follow the Lord's guidance!
