designed

The story doesn’t end because of a redirection. I’m learning that redirections from God are protective measures to make sure I am who I am for the person God has aligned me with. I’ve made the mistake of constantly looking for the man when really the man is supposed to be looking for me. The issue is, how is a man on the road of his God given purpose going to find me when I keep allowing distractions that will take me off the road to our meeting? Deeper than that, the journey is not about meeting the person, it’s about knowing God deeper. In the depths of the Lord, our paths will cross. 

I worry so much about not meeting that person that I trick myself into believing that any guy could be that person. Deep inside I know he isn’t just any guy, and I can’t keep ignoring the discernment of God if I truly want to meet him. Acting in self-will brings me further away from that person. It is only in God’s will that our paths will cross when God says it is time. I’ve been trying to force the hand of God by creating pathways with men that would ultimately lead to my downfall and their’s. I truly want to be with that person but first I have to be with God and know that only obedience and faithfulness to Him is the source of all I yearn. 

Beautiful part is I’m not alone in the yearning because there’s a man out there yearning for me too. We’re on the path together of getting deeper in God, though we have not met our spirits are linked through the blood of Jesus. An unspoken understanding of the other is already in effect, as long as we continue to walk in faithfulness to Our King I trust the meeting will be designed by God.
