In the days of debates and late night theological discussions, as a single young man, a common discussion revolved around whether our creator had a specific life mate for each of us or were we to simply follow the guide lines laid out in scripture. Arguments were made on both sides and as a single young man the resolution of such matters laid heavily on my heart. Was I to go into the world and choose or was I to wake one morning with a Ruth laying at my feet.
I am still not sure there is an answer to this pressing matter of interest for those yet to find a match. Somewhere a long the line though I picked up on the fact that God answers prayer. In fact he delights on our dependence on Him. If he is as passionate about me as he claims he is I figured he would be passionate about choosing a spouse for me. My prayer, regardless, of how He might relate to other singles, was to “He that knows all,” to find me a life mate…And that he did.
I am simply writing this as a blessed man whom has had his perfect mate chosen for him by “He was before time began.” My wife is another gift to me by my God who spoils me daily.
I just felt like sharing this tonight, I will fill in more of my life in times to come.
