Day 139 Your source of wholeness and identity should come from your relationship with the Lord, not from another person. It is only when you are truly living for the Lord and are fully content to accept Him as your sole provider that He would send another mate into your life. Do not rush into remarriage. "We're in a hurry-up, throwaway, disposable, microwavable world," says Gretchen, a widow. "And we do not want to wait. God doesn't do everything yesterday. He answers our prayers, but it's 'Yes' and 'No' and 'Wait.' Most of the time it's 'Wait.' It's in His timing and not our timing. We want everything in our timing." Be satisfied with your singleness, and let God supply your needs according to His perfect plan. "He who did not spare his own Son, but gave him up for us all—how will he not also, along with him, graciously give us all things?" (Romans 8:32). Savior God, I want to know You more fully than I do now. Amen. Through a Season of Grief The daily email messages you are receiving are also available in a book format.
