Today, a gem came up in my timehop from 7 years ago. I remember exactly what was going on in my life when I said this:
Sometimes God gives you what you THINK you want so you can see why it is NOT what you really NEED.
People change so you learn to let go; things go wrong so you appreciate when they are right; good things fall apart so better things can fall together.
My mom had passed 6 months prior to this and I was separated from my husband. I had cried and begged God for this man. We had been back and forth for YEARS. Yet, I couldn't see God was trying to protect me. When I finally married him, I promise you I was MISERABLE. God gave me what I wanted so I could see it was not what I needed. We were back and forth so much because we weren't compatible. I was trying to fit a square peg into a round hole because I thought I could change him.
The funny thing is he was the same person all along. I just refused to see it. He didn't change. My perception did. I no longer looked at him through rose colored glasses. He is not a bad man, just not the right man for me.
I love that this marriage taught me how I want to be treated and how I to treat my king. I am grateful for the lesson and more importantly the Blessing from the lesson. I am so happy with where I am in life now.
Better things are falling together....
Make it a great day.
