Some day, some one will walk into your life and make you realize why it never worked out with anyone else. You, Dad and I have had so many conversations about the young lady that God created just for you. There were times you've expressed frustration because you know she's out there, but you just don't know where.
As it's written in Proverbs 31, King Lemuel talks about what his mother taught the son of her womb. Those words hold true still today. As the son of my womb, I utter the words, "It will be worth the wait."
I also want to encourage you to not lower your expectations and settled for less than what God has for you. That would be so easy to do. I know first hand because I've done that many times in my life. The pain that I've experienced by settling left me empty with a broken heart.
I know that you desire a young woman who's heart is totally sold out for Christ. That's the greatest asset she will have. But I also know the virtues that you're looking for. I want to say to you that there's nothing wrong with the virtues you're looking for in a young lady. Continue believing the truth found in the word of God about what a virtuous woman is.
I must confess my son that I think about her too. I wonder what type of personality will she have. Will she laugh at my corny jokes? Will she adorn herself in an apron during the holidays and stand with your sisters and I in the kitchen? Will she encourage you to remain close to your family while raising your own? I know that's your desire. It's mine too.
I look forward to the day when she becomes a part of our family :)
Some day son you will find her.
Love,
Mom
"And let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart."
-Galatians 6:9
Such a Godly, handsome man from a good family, what a catch! I have an absolutely gorgeous daughter (I know I'm her mom, but complete strangers tell me this too, sometimes daily). She is very sweet and kind and interested in everyone. But she is only two so I doubt your son wants to wait around. :)
ReplyDeleteAmen! I would pray this for my sons,too.

That is so touching! God has a wonderful women out there for him I know it! And I love the song.
ReplyDeleteVery wise words from Mother to Son. It's a blessing to know that Godly young men are out there for the next generation. May your son stay on God's path & know that God is working on all things :)
ReplyDeleteI pray for all the young, single people on God's path; God is truly working on "the One" for each of us as He continues to prepare us for "the One".
Blessings :)
