“Imposters have been passing, offering a good-feeling glow but I'm holding out for what you are about - an inferno that burns to the bone . So I stand, handing out torches, speaking words that are lamps to their feet til' the time when you come and I'm whole and we are one and the fire in me is complete…So i’m holding my heart out for you"
I’ve been thinking about you a lot. Though we haven't been established, my heart knows you well. I hear you’re coming soon. I must admit, I’m pretty excited. I’ve been preparing a long time for this… but there are some things I think you should know. First, I love you. You’re my lobster. I’ve loved you. This is forever. I’ve been praying for you, possibly praying you into existence… ok maybe not into existence but into that divine appointment that brought us to where we are now.
I’ve been very diligent in taking care of myself for you. I keep my heart pure by abstaining from anything that may make me unclean and anything that doesn’t honor God. I know you’ll appreciate that because you’ve done the same for me. I’m no longer kissing frogs. In fact, I’m not kissing at all. I vowed to save that for you on our wedding day. I want you to unveil me and there be no traces of anyone else. Simply pure. So I pray daily that if there be anything that stands between God and myself, if there be anything that shrouds His glory, if there be anything that will weaken my sword in battle, that He purge it, slay it, utterly destroy it… I pray the same for you too. Your walk with God is so important to me because well, you’re going to be leading me and our children. We need a strong leader, that’s you. I’ll be right by your side though. Always.
I’ve been running a lot and nourishing my body, gotta stay healthy so we can enjoy the rest of our lives together. I know you’ve been taking care of your temple too. I want you to know I appreciate that. I always want to be aesthetically appeasing in your eyes and be the best me I can be not only for you, for me and our family. I vow to be that grandmother chasing our grandkids because I made my health a priority in my youth. I know you’ll understand because you have that same desire. I can’t wait to cook some of delicious meals for you and our family! I’ve gotten really good at it! Never thought I would enjoy cooking so much!
School has been hard but I’ve managed to make really good grades and keep my GPA up. I keep reciting Philippians 4:13. I’m sure if you were here with me now you would tell me the same thing Paul did.
I really should get back to my school work now, speaking of…. but I just wanted to take a minute to let you know you were on my mind. Thank you for your prayers today. I really love knowing that you’re thinking of me too and I look forward to the day that you and I are praying for one another, together.
Love Always,
Janet
