My Godly Husband

         You know what the most 2nd annoying question is after "what are you doing for your future?" It is "where is your boyfriend/husband?" This past two weekends I have got asked in some form "where is your boyfriend/husband?" First off, I'm only 26 years old I still got my whole life ahead of me and second off, I don't need one, I'm stubborn enough without one. That question comes at the hardest time for me for many reasons right now but won't go into them all. When someone asks that question, I just smile and/or say "I don't know" but I got to thinking about it and you know what I do know where my husband is. Warning: This entery is going to sound girly and very "religious" to some people.
          While I will admit because I'm a girl, it would be nice to have a real man to be my boyfriend/husband and to get presents on Valentine's Day and just for no reason at all. To know that someone loves me all the time no matter what. It would NEVER measure up to my only, true Godly Husband in Heaven who is God. No "real" guy can measure up. I would want to be close to my one TRUE husband and not have one here on earth, then to have one here on earth and to be pulled away from God. I can't believe I'm coming to this idea. I mean I still want to get married someday if it is God's Will for me but if God just wants me and only me. I'm happy with that too. I can have a foster home by myself and let God be the Father of those children. Who is a better Father then our God?
             I should say when people ask me that question, "He is up in Heaven and he is giving me everything I need now" and that would be a great convo. starter espically for non-Christians. The Husband of Perfect Love, Grace, Mercy, and Patience. The Healer and Creator of all. I mean He made the sunrise and sunset just for me. He has given the flowers to just me. He is there all the time and everywhere I go. He is quite when I need Him to be but yet speaks when I need Him to whether I know it or want it. He doesn't please me to my liking. He does and knows what is best for me.
             It is hard to grasped the idea of God being our Husband but in all ways, He is. We might have to cling to that until maybe even after we get a earthly husband or always if that is God's Will for us. If He wants us to be free of that pain and busyness to serve Him then we need to be okay with that. Sometimes I wonder if uncommitted people are really committed to God so they go where God wants them to go and learn what God wants them to learn but yet in the world's eyes they look uncommitted to anything. Have we ever thought of it that way?

Challenge for Today: "Are you looking to God as your Husband or are you waiting for an earthly one?"
