Waiting on His Will by Diamond Jones
“Dear God: Today I find myself burdened by loneliness and wallowing in my singleness. I know you aim to use my desire to be in an intimate relationship with a man as a means to deepen my relationship with you. Help me to find peace and contentment in my current situation and find my wholeness in you.”
On December 25, 2018, I wrote that prayer on a prayer card and placed it in my prayer box. It was my sign of surrender- surrendering my desires, surrendering my frustrations, and surrendering my doubts over to God.
Letting Go of the Past by Lydia McIntosh
I was 22 when I met my husband through an online dating website. He was cute in his profile so I took a chance and messaged him. After texting for a few weeks, we finally met for coffee. Clay was fun, easy to talk to and a true southern gentleman. We had conversations about our families, faith, values, and friends. I felt as though he had the whole package and after a couple of months of going on dates, I knew he was the one.
