Six months since I made this pact. Six months since I went public with this desire. I claimed my dreams as worthy to be dreamt and worthy of prayer. I am not sure how all the other ladies are doing right now, but I can definitely say that I have been changed. I have been pushed and challenged, but have come out stronger on the other end. Stronger might not be the correct word as I have learned to dig deeper in my faith. While the big idea of this prayer request has stayed the same, specifically seeking a godly gentleman to become my future husband, some of the details have changed.
Have I seen results? Sure. They aren’t anything like I expected, but they are there no the less. I am not in a relationship and I definitely am not dreaming of china patterns. It might seem like I am all alone, but I am most definitely not. First of all, I have such a great support group with the other ladies in the group. I might not be real life friends with any of them, but we are sisters and sojourners on the same path. I can definitely sense the power of intercession. Second, this online initiative has been helped me encourage and support some of my real life friends and sisters of faith.
As for the guys, I have seen progress. Guys have shown me that I am desirable. I am not invisible or forgotten. They may or may not be acting consistent with someone who wants to pursue my heart. Maybe they are, but I do not yet recognize such efforts. Either way, it makes me feel real special to be noticed, and not by random creeps on the internet. There is a lot that I do not understand. One thing is sure, if this is the kind of success that I am seeing after six months, how much closer will I be in the coming months?
This is part of the women praying boldly initiative. Find more about that here. Come back on Saturday for more of what I have learned this month.
