This morning, as I was getting ready to drive back home to vote, I was thinking about all of the fabulous people that God has put into my life while at Berry College. I am thankful for each and every one of them, but there are a few (of the male gender) that were really standing out in my mind. I was thinking about how godly these guys are and how they have influenced my standards to become even higher than they already were (and they were already pretty much unattainable). Now, while I am not in love with any of them by any stretch of the imagination, hanging out with them has helped me recognize more attributes that I want in my future husband. As I was thinking about this, I started feeling a little bit down and out. All of you girls know this feeling. It’s the “I need a man and he’s never coming” feeling. Yeah, that one. Sorry to remind you all.
Well, as I was thinking about how near and dear that these boys are to my heart, I felt God just putting his finger on my heart, so to speak. He was like, “Now Madi, how many times do I have to tell you that I have it covered? I know the desires of your heart, and I already have someone just for you. Be patient.” Talk about convicting and comforting all at the same time. So, if you think about it, please pray that I will be content while waiting. It’s really hard for me.
Madi,
Praying every day.
I love you,
Aunt Laurie
