love is waiting

A woman should be so lost in God that a man should seek Him to find her...

Love Is Waiting lyrics by Brooke Fraser

In the autumn on the ground, between the traffic and the ordinary sounds
I am thinking signs and seasons while a north wind blows through
I watch as lovers pass me by
Walking stories - whos and hows and whys
Musing lazily on love
Pondering you
I'll give it time, give it space and be still for a spell
When it's time to walk that way we wanna walk it well
I'll be waiting for you baby
I'll be holding back the darkest night
Love is waiting til we're ready, til it's right
Love is waiting

It's my caution not the cold
There's no other hand that I would rather hold
The climate changes, I'm singing for the strangers about you
Don't keep time, slow the pace
Honey hold on if you can
The bets are getting surer now that you're my man

I could write a million songs about the way you say my name
I could live a lifetime with you and then do it all again
And like I can't force the sun to rise or hasten summer's start,
neither should I rush my way into your heart.

"For the Lord does not see as man sees; for man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7).

When I look at the man I love, I search to find the heart of God. The treasure that is hidden within him that explains the beauty of his being. Looking past the handsome features and charm, and seeing his character. How he treats others, what he believes, what hurts him, what brings healing and joy to his heart. A man that knows God. Who understands what it means to walk with Jesus.
There is no such thing as a perfect man. But with the help of the life of God, I will not expect perfection from anyone, only godliness. Who knows the heart of man but the One who created it? If we feel love, He feels love. If we hurt, He hurts. Who created laughter and romance? The same Someone who created life itself. And it is He whom I trust to grant me the blessing of a husband after the heart of the Keeper of my heart, should it be His destiny for me.
"you have made my heart beat faster with a single glance of your eyes" Songs of Solomon 4:9
God is the author of love. God is love. And if I believe these truths, I will go right to the source of love to find love!
I believe its important to remember this:"For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them" (Ephesians 2:10).". . . Be renewed in the spirit of your mind; and . . . put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness" (Ephesians 4:22-24,)God is not finished with us. We are still His workmanship. He is creating in us "righteousness and true holiness"—His character.As long as we are human, our character is not firm; it is not permanent. We can change our minds and behavior. We can make mistakes and learn from them. We can learn from the fruits of our right and wrong choices.Since we can change our minds—and repent of our errors—God can change us even more and create in us the will and the capacity to steadfastly choose what is right over what is wrong. "For it is God who works in you both to will and to do for His good pleasure" (Philippians 2:13).
