Jesus, Lover of my Soul

Right now I am in a season of singleness, and have been for a while. The Lord is teaching me a lot. I'm learning that when you seek him with all your heart he will give you the desires of your heart. I'm learning that he is the only one who can take the loneliness away on Saturday nights when my roommates are all with their boyfriends. He's the only one who can make me beautiful when I feel undesirable or unworthy of love. Because he lives in my heart I am beautiful... Because he made me I am beautiful... He is the only one who can complete me. I could live my life striving to be in a relationship. In fact that's what the world expects us to do. Chase the boy until he lets you catch him. Run after love until you reach it, because if you don't you will be alone for the rest of your life.... But, I know that is false! When you are a lover of the Lord you are never alone. "When we work, God will wait; but when we wait, God will work" Lady in Waiting So, something I'm learning now is to seek the Lord to let him fill every intimate corner of my heart. And, for the past month or so he has been doing exactly that. I still have the desire to be married and have a family, but I know that is not what will complete me. Jesus has already done that. I look forward to meeting the man the Lord has made for me. But for now, I am finding my joy in serving the Lord and dancing with him. I have a joy better than any man could every give me. My joy comes from the Lord. "As the father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love....I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete." John 15: 9, 11
