Not that Issue again?!

A friend of mine is experiencing some problems with his girlfriend of close to 3 years. Apparently they broke up on the reasons that they both needed more time to sort things out.

Don't worry, this friend of mine is a faithful brother who loves God, just that his turn of events got me really thinking.

But the seeing him weeping quietly in the corner has profound impact on me.

I always believed that if God has called two people together, their relationship will together produce a fruit that one cannot bear alone. God had it planned all along when He took Eve out of Adam - they are inseparable and part of each other.

"Not good for man to be alone..." It's a mystery uttered by God that I can't seem to grasp.

Anyway the dangerous part is for us to base our feelings on shallow emotions ALONE. For guys it’s particularly dangerous because of the issue of lust - decisions can be made solely based on that, and many lives are ruined. The danger of dangers is that we claim our own selfish choices as ordained by God.

For many, trusting God for their soul mate can be a scary and risky affair. It once was for me, and I wanted to play God. But as I grow older, it seems for my case, trusting God is not a choice; I'll be doomed and die a bachelor if I didn't trust God!

He always has His own timing, just like how God brought Rebekah to comfort Isaac at his hour of need.

I’ll trust Him, like in everything else both small and big in my life.

Heh.

Of course as usual mom keeps on asking, asking and asking "when" and "who". I told her to buy me a plane ticket to Vietnam and I'll return with a nice wife.

Her response was a sarcastic laugh.

So for now I'm not planning to "fish"; had enough of that nonsense long time ago.

I'll just trust God that He not only knows the plans He has for me, but also the means by which I'm gonna achieve it.

(For Richard it involves a rose and playing guitar below the house of some girl who stays on the 3rd storey. heh heh No wonder you want to learn the guitar... =P)
