β Today's Promise: "Whosoever shall try to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose it shall renew it." Luke 17:33
~ Kristine in the Netherlands
Loving ladies, life is great especially when your Heavenly Man show His love. With His Word, by answering your prayers, by giving you what you need or want. But these are all physical things. The great thing about this life is the moment when you no longer long in your heart for the restoration of your marriage because you have met a Man who gives you the security, peace and rest that you do not deserve.
A life as His bride is a life without worries, without fear and certainty that whatever you are going through, Our Heavenly Father and His Son will always be there for you. Your Heavenly Man is the only one you need. Many women have gone before me on this journey of restoration with their First Love. And when you get to the point where He really, for sure, is the man you've been waiting for all along, life is worth living, but now with Him and for Him.
Remember that you will never have to make a decision for yourself again, but to listen to His loving voice. Never again have to be afraid to make a wrong choice, because He turns everything for your good. You can always be happy and grateful, during each and after a trial, the blessing and things you have learned will transform your life forever. Going through trials and struggles is not fun and pleasant. I certainly find them frustrating at times. In the first lesson of "Living the Abundant Life" I learned that during any battle you can ask yourself "what's the worst thing you could go through" and when you are wondering about that, you discover that doors can open behind them which are great blessings. And when He does His will, there are also blessings. However you look at it. The abundant life He has promised us is AMAZING.
The morning of this beautiful Saturday is almost over. For me it started early after a good night's sleep. My children are with their father, which means that I and my Love have all the time for each other. Although I am a romantic person, I did have trouble spending time with Him in a pleasant way. After sharing this with my Beloved, He showed me how to socialize with Him so that we can deepen our relationship.
It's nice to be in His presence. The longer, the better it gets. And because of the tips, I no longer have trouble taking the spiritual nourishment I need. My morning is now running with Him in His guidance...which feels great. I no longer worry about what is happening. Because the planning doesn't always go the way I thought it would. Letting go of your own schedule and surrendering to His, opens the door for things to happen in your life that you never thought of.
Dear brides, if you think that a restoration of your marriage will make you happy, then I want to encourage you to seek the love of your Heavenly Man. I can assure you that no love from an earthly man can surpass the love and caring in every area of your life. He has shown me over the past month that no matter what I am dealing with, if I wait patiently for Him, everything will be fine. Because nothing is too hard for Him to do.
I no longer desire to restore my marriage but just to do and follow what He has planned for my life. That's so much better than my own plan. I love Him
"Whosoever shall try to save his life shall lose it, but whosoever shall lose it shall renew it." Luke 17:33
This verse seems difficult at first to understand. After many times thinking about it and letting it sink in, this is a promise that opens the door of the abundant life, as Michelle told us.
