For My Future Husband, A Letter

Dear Future Husband,

Let me begin by saying, the Lord is sovereign. I long for the day when I walk down the aisle and pledge my life to you, and I trust that God knows my heart and my deepest desires. I can't wait to see how the mystery unfolds. There is a huge part of me that wonders how I will meet you, what you will look like, what your family is like, what you want out of life, what your strengths are, what your struggles are, what is going on in your life during this point in time, and certainly how our walks with God will bring us together.
I want you to know that I pray for you, every day. I realize that you're human, you have your bad days, and your good days. I pray that He would make you a man, a warrior for His Kingdom, like David, and Josiah. I pray that He would mold you into the husband, I'll need someday. I pray that He will raise you up to be a father, to have a heart like His. I pray that He will make me the wife, best friend, and partner, that He knows you desire. I pray that I learn something new each day, to better equip me to be the helpmeet that I am called to be.
There are alot of things that I could say right now, but I can't wait to walk with you, talk with you, sing car songs together (haha) and most importantly, worship the Father together. I can't wait to be lead into prayer by you, to discover new things in the Living Word together, and I can't wait to do ministry together....whatever that ministry may be.
It's important that you know, I am a diehard USC Gamecocks fan. I bleed Garnet and Black. So, as long as you can handle me, and my family screaming "Burn Tigers Burn", you'll be good.
Another important fact, I hate bananas. 
Anyhow, this is the part I hate, the end. I know the story is just beginning, but this letter must come to an end, and I must start my day. Please know, that I am waiting faithfully for you, and the day I'll take your hand. Remember, there is redemption, freedom, and a second chance through Jesus Christ.
I pray that you're waiting for me, as I wait for you. As you start your day, I hope you know that God loves you, and so do I, you have a purpose, and "you are not less of a man because you don't have a five year plan". God has BIG things for you, just trust Him, always.


Love you,

Jess
