    I first came across this poem right before meeting someone I thought I’d marry in college… that was 11 years ago. I’m still single, no prospects, the wait is not easy but I’m trusting God. It’s midnight & I was reminded of this poem. If you’re out there waiting, keep seeking God. Trust His timing, & His choice for your kingdom spouse. Don’t try to do it on your own. That’s all I got for now (speaking to myself too) 💕

    Ladies I know it is hard to wait, but trust God. Gods way is the best way. When you obey His law you avoid a lot of pain, and heartache. Wait on God and know He has a person for you. He says seek first Him and his kingdom and ALL things will be added to you. And God is not slack concerning His promises. A man that honors God with his mouth and his life. A man who strengthens your faith and pulls you closer to God. A man who you can pray with, and praise with. No he won't be perfect, and there is no perfect man. But don't settle for anything less than what you know God wants for you. Many woman get impatient. But if you go outside of God to get something, you have to stay outside of Him to keep it.

    I loved this. Glory to God!!! I decided to wait at the age of 16. I've never fell in love, and i have never had a boyfriend. I remember my words to God were " I give you my heart, take care of it. Don't let it fall in love until I see the one you chose for me" and God did so. I'm 22 right know and I can tell that God is faithful and he truly get serious every word you speak to him. I'm still single and I'm proud because God saved me from many heartaches and sadness. It is worth all the wait. God is always in time. I'll keep running to God and to his purpose for my life and I will one day eventually see a man by my side running with me. God's timimg is always perfect!!

    I’ve been in three relationships since I first saw this video when I was 17 (10 years ago) and each relationship ended with me coming back to this video and crying because of the overwhelming sense of shame, embarrassment, and regret. I’m thankful that the Lord gives us more than one chance and has a beautiful plan and purpose for us that’s better than anything we could even try to “force” to work out. I pray that this will be the LAST time that any of us will have to watch this video as a reminder…in Jesus’ name! ❤️‍🔥

    This was beautiful! This poem reminds me of my husband and I knew he was from God when we met. He didn't show up in a grand way, he just showed up and it was love at first sight. After dating for three weeks and getting to know each other, we got married a week before Christmas. Ten years and five kids later, we're still going strong. God has blessed everyday of our life and marriage, we have survived situations that would have broken the normal marriage or relationship apart.

    I have waited on God’s timing for 10 years. I’ve developed a deep relationship with the Lord. I am blessed to have had these 10 years. He is a good good Father. I feel the Holy Spirit is preparing me to meet my husband tomorrow. But even if He doesn’t, I will continue having a faith like Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. ❤️🥰🙌🏽🙏🏽

    At minute 2.25 though... "He couldn't even pray when I needed him to, asking him to fast would be absurd; so forget about being cleansed and washed with water through the Word" Sums it all up perfectly. No man who is not of God will do. His works will always be inferior to the standards set in Ephesians 5

    I saw this many years ago but this hits deeper more than before. I’m turning 30, still not married. I recently ended a beautiful relationship with a man who I thought was my soulmate. He helped healed me. But he is a different religion and his family rejects me. So here I am alone again. I finally surrendered my whole life to God. Sometimes He has to isolate you and remove people from your life that you put first so you can make God first. I am more healed with Him in my life
