If you happen to be of the female persuasion and have ever found yourself in a large field of daisies, you more than likely have performed the rite of passage by picking one of the flowers, plucking the petals one by one, and reciting ?He loves me, He loves me not!?

Every young girl dreams about the arrival of her very own Prince Charming. She is ransomed by her grand imaginations of a dashing, young suitor mounted upon his faithful white charger galloping into her life and whisking her off to a far away castle atop the highest mountain. (We can?t help ourselves -- we chicks just seem to have this fantasy coded deep within our DNA). :giggle:

Not to worry, though. As fate would have it, we do eventually mature into womanhood and recognize that life doesn?t always turn out the way we imagine. The Bible even speaks about the importance of putting away childish things (1 Corinthians 13:11). But one of the neat things I?ve discovered about God is that whenever He has to take something away, He always makes a point of putting back something a whole lot better.

Yes, I had to give up my dreamy idea about the ?Prince thing,? but what I discovered was that another hero was anxiously waiting in the wings for me. And He wasn?t just your run-of-the-mill, lower level royalty; rather, the very King of Kings Himself desired to escort me into His beautiful Kingdom to rule and reign alongside of Him.

My day of coronation arrived, and as I stood before Him, He took my hand and gently unfolded my fingers. He smiled at me as he dropped some daisy petals within my palm. I looked down and began to cry as I noticed that He had given me only the petals that had said ?He loves me.? :)


I vowed then to take Him at His Word when He said, ?I have loved thee with an everlasting love.?

?Jeremiah 31:3

And, as you may well have already guessed, we went on to live? happily ever after!
 
Oh I love that!  Thank you for sharing that!  You know in the movie The Passion of Christ?  The part where Mary Magdeline is on the floor and Jesus goes up to her and she just looks up at Him?  That's how I feel when I think of that image, my Hero!  My King!  My Knight in Shining Armor!  For the longest time I thought a man can fill up that empty place in my heart and now I see it was only Jesus all along.  Whoever my husband is in the future, I can say that he has to be the physical manifestation of God's love for me.  There is no way around it.

That's very funny Nadia, all i can say is that i heartly agree, anymore and i think i'll get myself into trouble with the moderator  :)

I have no doubt that God will give you two the desires of your heart, im certain that He will send someone good to share your life with, both of you certainly deserve it.

Just reading little stories like that and also some posts; some girls tend to have a high "unrealistic" expectation of their Prince Charming.  I don't mean to burst anyone's bubble but married life just isn't like those stories.  While the first year or 2 is very eventful and im not just talking about the sexual relationship, you'll find soon afterwards that you will have to start working on your relationship.

Its a bit like our Christian walk here on this earth.  There are days you're on top of the world and other days you'd rather forget about.  Just some brotherly advise to make sure you don't stray too much from reality. 

After 5 years of marriage, i need to ask Nelly if im still her prince charming.    :giggle:
 
Your welcome Clara.... :)

I receieved Christ as my Lord and Savior when i was 13, never wanted any guy when i was a teenager because i used to tell friends i have Jesus i dont a 'boy to make me happy which it was true .... when you reach your 20s you think hmm well maybe 'theres a prince charming out there, lol until the Lord says to you hes the only prince charming of your life and soul...I come to relise Lord Jesus christ is my first love when he knocked on my door when i was a teenager i received him and from then on i keep and want to fall deeply in love with him and want to know him more and more and do his Will for my life, he knows and i tell him that i love him....

Ankido, like the writer said its in our blood? :giggle: but yes in relationships you have to work hard to keep it going....i pray you and your wife will always be blessed with happines and love in your marrige in Jesus mighty name .
 
Ankido, thank you for that piece of advice.  I think the reason why we fail as human beings in life is that no one wants to share their experience with the other.  You have to wait till you find out for yourself the hard way, however!  Thank God for the Body of Christ that we all have that in us because of Christ Jesus.  We all can't function without each other. 

Praise God for your wonderful relationship with your wife.  I pray you and her are always blessed in Christ.

Nadia, that's so great!  I wish I can go back in time and accept Jesus when I was a teenager.  It's okay, God was watching over me since and it shaped me into who I am today.  I'm proud of you and only wish you the best.  I always love to see how God has worked or is working in a persons life.  We need to share more!

Have an awesome day guys!

Clara, i know a dear person who excepted Christ in their late 20s, that person was in a mess yet the Lord used her to bring so many people to him she always thought he was special yet no one told her about him...it was through a family memeber who told her about the Lord, she gave her life to him, he used her to bring people to him and is so mature in spirit that i call her to seek some adive when i feel down or need an advice frim some one whos mature spiritually and in Christ...i think the Lord has a timing for everyone, he knows when to enter someone life in his own time and like you said Clara im sure the Lord was watching over you and he knew when to enter your life and he was working without you knowing that he had amazing plan for your life...even with me i was young yet i didnt know him well, i was going through somethings when i was 13 but the lord knew that i needed him in my life and he planned for my cousin whos born again to come and stay with us that the Lord introduced himself to me through her...

thank you for your kind words and i am too proud of you and i learn so much from your posts and your encourgement using the Word of God is always spirit lifting without a doubt... :wavetowel:

God bless x
 
Great article. It made me laugh  :clap:

As a woman its hard wiring to see if the Lord is going lead a man into my life, maybe he will and maybe he won't.  But I cant focus on marriage and all the possible "what if's, what about this guy or that guy, it will only drive you crazy. Instead focus on God, do His work, and in time if you are suppose to be married you will, no need to worry, our Heavenly Father is looking out of our best interest, He is going to look for the best. Unlike what my heart is drawn to.
