Hi family!
I know… it’s been longer than a minute since I have written anything and checked in. Buuuutttt, it is all within good reason! 🙂 . I’ve been in this place of surrender to God for the past year, which I did not know that I needed. It has been a tough year but rewarding.
I am grateful to have the opportunity to have gotten close to God and to hear Him clearly. I know my purpose; I am healing in His presence; above all, He is truly Lord, friend, lover of my soul, and husband over my life.
This series that God has led me to write is that I am overjoyed to be a part of because it is another chance for me to act on my obedience towards Him, but also to act on the measure of faith that I have in Him and His Promises for me.
I hope that as I embark on this journey, it will bless you to share in a similar journey with Christ, whether you desire marriage or not. I pray that it helps you to begin to trust God in areas that still cause hurt and soreness. Allow His presence, all of who He is, to fill those dark places with His illuminating light. He loves you and desires the very best for you!
Give yourself the Grace that has already been imparted to you. He is with you. You are not alone. Believe Him.
Love you all, and I pray you enjoy this journey with me!
Dear Husband,
“Where you at?” This is my constant question to God about you. Like, for real, where are you? Lol. I miss you, and desire to hug you, be under you, and learn and grow with you! I am excited to serve you and be in ministry with you. But… where are you, my guy? Lol.
I can admit that I used to be plagued with figuring out where to find you or where I could place myself to be found. But you can genuinely believe that God set me straight and let me know, REAL QUICK, that I will have nothing to do with our meeting except follow the ordained steps He called me to be obedient in completing. And, as long as I follow His footsteps, I will be placed where I can be found by you through God leading you.
God has helped me realize, decide, and obey that He is bigger than all I can imagine Him doing for us and our marriage. God made me realize that I deeply desire for us to be together; however, it will not cure my singleness.
Singleness has been challenging. I am not sure if it has been as hard for you as it has been for me, but I can admit I struggled, A LOT. Now, not so much because I am confident in the work of the Lord, but trust me, I still have my days. But in those stormy days, when everything around me is in chaos, and I am looking for your arms to run into, I remember that His voice is above all the thunder, lightning, and the clashing of the sea.
I am reminded of Psalm 29:3-10, in which David remembers how God is above the storms of life. No matter how loud life can become, God’s voice alone can shatter every chain, stronghold, pain, and increase every joy and release every weakness by becoming our strength. He rules over ALL.
So, in our wait, let us be encouraged and pray that we come into full knowledge that God’s voice is above all the clamor of the seas; that His voice alone can split cedars, mountains skip, shakes the wilderness and makes it barren, twist oaks, strips the forests of the earth, and rules over all the floodwaters. His voice alone is powerful and majestic, striking like bolts of lightning and thunders over the sea. He will continue to reign as our King forever, and His voice will rule over all seemingly mighty and thunderous things.
It is His voice alone that speaks our Promises boldly; it Is His gentle whisper that leads us into His righteousness. We thank Him for his Goodness and Mercy! As we wait, He still speaks, and His Word over our lives still stands. We can rest and be assured that His voice will be above all the noise we hear daily. Let us continuously surrender our lives, will, purpose, thoughts, and beliefs to Him in exchange for what He wants. Let us live for Him daily, for He will bring us to one another at the right time, the perfect time.
Dear Husband, continue to serve Him, and He will continue to lead you. Don’t give up.
With love,
Your wife, Ter’race.
