Dear brides, I give praise to my Love, who constantly proves His affection for me.
Recently, I've been wondering if there's something going on in Vincent's (ex-husband's) life, what's in his heart and how God works in his life. Apparently it was because I was reading some testimony or praise that led me to think. I have no contact with Vincent, and even though I have occasional contact with my in-laws, we never talk about him, I never ask. I told my Love that it would be nice to see at least some little tiny thing from his life that would give me more hope, now I realize how stupid it was, because we all know very well that we do not live by sight. And although I love my First Love and enjoy our time together, evidence of His faithfulness is still welcome 
The next day I went to the store and, as so often, I asked my Love to meet only the people I had to meet and talk to the people I had to talk to, all according to His will. I wanted a longer walk, so I chose a longer route where I saw Vincent in his car. I just said to my Love, “Seriously? Why?? ”It was funny, because this isn't the first time I've seen him (we live in the same city) and I honestly thought and hoped I would never meet him. It was a moment when I thought it was planned by Him and it was His will, I suppose it will happen to me as long as I'm okay with it and it doesn't evoke any extra emotions in me, because I've already found my Love. Well, I have to admit, it boosted a little bit my thinking about how God was working in his life.
I shared my thoughts with a bride at our weekly meeting and her words encouraged me a lot because she told me there was definitely a reason why I didn't know anything about him and it's good. My heart was filled with joy, peace, and praise because I see it as His protection. It's true!! His protection is perfect, he loves me so much.
The next night I had a dream in which Vincent and I held hands, we laughed a lot and it was clear that we were restored. It was also funny, because it's been a long time since I've dreamed with Vincent. The icing on the cake was that we also walked with my friends - Erin, the Polish bride Tiara and the Slovak brides I meet at weekly meetings.
I apologize for mentioning Vincent here often, because this praise belongs to my greatest Love. Life with Him is so intense and beautiful, He will not miss any opportunity to take us into His embrace and show us His infinite love. These are the little things that make life, and in the end it will become a great thing that we desire to be only in His presence.
