Finding A Wife
I tried finding a wife and I found a little girl. She was an aspiring adult that had not embraced the reality of living without the care and covering of another. I tried finding a wife and I found woman. As special as she seemed to me, I did not find the precious qualities that would cause me to forsake all others for her. I tried finding a wife and I found a friend. She was an awesome friend whom I was comfortatble talking to and protecting. She gave me the support that I needed from a distance. I tried finding a wife and I found an enemy. She was not on my side, but instead she was only on her own side and wanted me to suffer because of it. I tried finding a wife and I found a project. Everything about her and the relationship was work. Work to be happy, work to have fun. work to stay together and work to le live. To protect me I kept her objectively distant and later realized that she was on the periphery and not IN my life. I tried finding a wife and I found a dependent. She needed me so much that I could not enjoy needing her. She was my other dependent. I tried finding a wife and now I am letting God find her for me. When God finds her, He will prepare both her and me for each other….for a lifetime!
