And it turned out to be such a beautiful thing! So yes, I was a bit disappointed not hearing from him now that he is back in Nigeria and I’m in the US. But God showed up! After feeling sad about it all the following morning, I go for my run with God. When a glitch occurred with the Nike run I selected, and it refused to play, I knew it was God’s way of calling my attention to the lyrics of this song that was the very first to randomly play:
“The very first time that I saw your brown eyes… I knew right then you were the one… You were more than just a face… I JUST WANNA BE THE ONE YOU NEED… I just wanna be the One to serve you… To be with Me through thick and thin… Please share My love with Me, My friend… I cherish every moment that We share… I need someone who will be My friend… Promise that you’ll never leave me lonely… I JUST WANT TO BE THE ONE YOU NEED…” – If I Ever Fall in Love, Shai
Told you guys, God is pretty talkative once you have ears to hear Him! For this song to be the very first to play during my morning run with Him, was His sweet way of telling me that He didn’t want me sad and upset by feeling a little rejected by hubby and that HE WANTS TO BE THE ONE I NEED! God is really a jealous God! Others may reject us, but His love is everlasting, faithful, and unconditional.
In hubby’s defense, though, he has so much going on, and he is pretty tired by the time he gets home. I was getting spoilt with spending every evening with him here cooking for us and watching our show Blacklist on Netflix together. Love ya, boo!
How is your relationship with God going? Are you His friend? I promise you, all my alone times that I’ve invested in getting to know Him have paid off infinity percent! Hubby may not be here with me, but knowing God is my Constant Companion (who sings to me!) gives me the courage to take on my life bravely, joyfully, lovingly, peacefully, and STRONG!
