I have something to admit …
please don’t read this wrong,
please don’t read into this,
just be patient,
and I’ll explain it fully …
So, here is my admission …
I do not wish for my kids to get married.
(did I just hear music from the movie Psycho?)
Now, here is the explanation …
I am happily married,
I am glad that I married,
I am committed to my marriage,
but I do not believe that one has to be married to be
happy,
joyful,
fulfilled,
or live a life with purpose.
Purpose comes from the one who gave us breath,
gave us life.
And anything that comes after Him
is simply EXTRA icing on the cake of life.
I hope for the ‘princesses’ (and prince) in our home to hold on to the encouragement of the letter below :
Now, all that said, I do dream that if they marry, one day, it might be to someone who is already dreaming of them.
(music from Psycho yet again)
This guest post is a video (below), and it is directed towards females, though, I hope the same of my son, and for my son. I hope that if my three marry, they would marry someone who has been loving them, anticipating their entry into his or her life from before they met. To love from the position of knowing that God is the Lord of perfect timings, and IF marriage is something in their future lives, that the primary qualifier is a mutual trust in God.
And, if marriage is not in their future, that their future can still be perfect, because every moment, of every day, is still in the hands of God.
