The Rascal's Big Hero


So the writer was busy all throughout the last quarter of this year mainly because of my duties at work and because of the biggest blessing God sent me – my heart’s big hero. With all the effort put into making the event possible, I am most grateful to the Lord for sewing our yesterdays and bringing us to where we are at this point, and for the support and warm accommodation of our friends and families when we needed them the most.

Sometime in the past I remember giving up on ever entering a relationship again. I keenly sought for God’s wisdom so I can better understand the circumstances I’d have to face alone in the future, strong will so I can endure loneliness and low self-esteem attacks, and grace so I can magnify the Lord in my life as a set-apart woman. True enough, I never dated anyone for years. I didn’t play hard-to-get either. I was tough enough to just say no at once when situations called for it. And those were years when I can gladly say I was in my closest fellowship with God. He filled the emptiness in my heart with that passion to just serve Him, know more about Him, love Him and nothing else matters. That was when I can clearly identify what being content in life means.

Once upon a time, the big rascal met her big hero.
Just as when I felt to be at the peak of my closeness with my Saviour, there came someone who brought my vulnerability back to its place – well at least in a better way this time. It scared me at the beginning but God comforted me and have this person pray hand in hand with me right from the start. 

The years I spent alone, just keeping my focus to the Lord equipped me to be wiser today, to be more prayerful, to be more dependent on God’s word. Because the call to wait will never be easy, we both set our hearts into trusting God for our future. 

To date, I am certain that our relationship makes us more thankful and closer to God and that we can't wait for what He has in store for us in the year, or years, to come.

There is more to trusting God than just throwing things away. Chances are we look around to that exact place were we trashed them off and give up and blame God for another heartache. Trusting means letting it go and have Him do the plan as He pleases and that’s never dependent on how I will feel or react. So together, we move onto the next chapter of our relationship – willingly offering to God the pen to write our love story.

Happy New Year, everyone!
