Desire to be marrried - rmtv79 - 09-14-2010 07:27 PM
I have been praying that the Lord would bring the right man into my life for almost 7 years, but I am getting discouraged.
I am blessed in so many ways and I try to remember that...I have a job where God has me serving young families who's children have just been diagnosed with autism. I have wonderful parents and a few truly great friends. So I do know, that I am blessed...but lately I have to remind myself of that more frequently.
I have gotten resentful and jealous (2 things I have always tried hard not to be) it seems like everything I do and everywhere I go I am surrounded by young families. Since having my own family is such a strong desire it has been increasingly harder to not get overly emotional; such as crying in church, awkward moment friend's house...and even Wendy's the other day (Good grief). I am finding myself increasingly distracted by jealous and resentful thoughts. I try to pray in the moment...but the tears keep coming. When am at home an pray, listen to worship music, or read ...I do feel comfortable by God...but I feel like those bad moments are affecting my witness to others, the ways I am able to serve and some of my friendships.
Please pray that I would not just know, but act as if I believe that:
Everything I do is to bring God glory so if I am struggling in service it isn't about me not having children but about taking care of God's Children.
That I would have joy that can only come from the spirit, instead of all this sadness that is distracting me from Him and the friendships he is trying to bless me with.
and praying that I would have more patience as I am waiting.
and that He would bring my husband into my life and that I would know that it was God's work and God's timing and therefore right and not a mistake.

Father, thank you for this woman's heartfelt prayer. Waiting is hard when we want something badly...but since God's timing is always perfect it will be well worth the wait. Father let this woman trust that you only want what's best for her and help to stand knowing that for now you are her loving spouse. Let her focus on serving you with all of her heart, that she will draw the man you have for her by her Godly spirit, inner beauty and loving heart that only comes from you. Let the man in whose heart you etched her name at the foundation of the world be ready for her soon...that you might send him to his heart's home. In Jesus name...Amen!

Thank you so much. The amount of sadness has really startled me and encouragement and prayer from other believers really helps. Thanks.
