chances are, i've written a post along these lines before. and chances are, you've heard or read something along these lines too. but last night, i decided to start something new. last night, i decided to write a song, so last night, i flipped through each page of my bible, and wrote down every verse i had highlighted. i don't remember why i highlighted half of them, but one of them really stuck out to me.
"do not arouse or awaken love until it so desires" - song of songs 3:5 it took a minute for this verse to set in, because so often we forget. we forget that our plans don't really matter... our love is determined by a greater power, a greater person. it doesn't seem real sometimes, and then he proves it to us all over again. waiting is really hard, especially when society is telling us to take the plunge, get the momentary satisfaction without waiting for something real, something worthwhile. waiting is probably the most difficult thing, especially for a thing that could happen at any time, but it's rewarding. it's so rewarding.
