Wanted: Lady Bug
author: anonymus
I have always dream of meeting the girl of my
dreams that God has planned for me. Often,
I find
myself thinking about what she is like.
There are times that I wanted to be like
Isaac,
looking for my Rebekah by asking for signs.
In
addition, there are instances that I wanted to
act
like Jacob, waiting for my Rachel, a girl worth
waiting for. Often times, I find myself making
a list
of the traits my dream girl should posses.
All the while, I have been thinking about the
assets
my future wife should have, such as being
gorgeous, prayerful and a good cook. But
last
Saturday was very different. I was at school,
our
professor did not attend our class, and the
midst
of all the noises my classmates are making
God
struck me with an amazing thought. The
thought
is
like this: what if God did show me the girl of
my
wildest dreams, am I ready for her? Am I
worthy
for her?
I have been dreaming of becoming an Isaac
or
being a Jacob but those dreams had
covered my
eyes from the truth that I should first be like
David,
a man after Gods own heart.
The truth is that God will reveal the answer to
my
prayers in the proper time, the time when I
am
ready to receive it.
I believe that in the near future God will show
me
my Rebekah or let me know a Rachel but
before
that, I should first strive and do my best to
become
a David, a man that is all out to God, a man
who
exhibits the character of Christ
