I have
been praying for you, from the moment God told me that I am part of two. Wonder if we already met, if you are at this
moment making your way to me. I hope you
are… I feel you getting closer. In the meantime I am exploring the deep reaches of my heart, healing all
the wounds, releasing that which stands in our way and preparing for your
arrival… This week I will complete my fourth Novena for my future husband –
which means that for the past 36 days I have been setting time aside to pray
for my soulmate and uniting in prayer with Saint Joseph, Saint Rafael, Saint
Anne & Saint Valentine (smile).
Someone wants a daddy... LOL
It all
began one morning last month when I jokingly asked my mom to pray a novena so
that I would find my future husband soon, and she burst out laughing. I
guess that’s what I get for always joking around- no one takes me seriously
(wink). So, the following day to express
my sincerity for the favor asked, I showed mom my printed Saint Joseph Novena
guide, and she laughed again! Though, I
was only going to do the one novena, friends started telling me of other saints
that have prayers for “future husbands” and I am on my fourth! Though, I began this exercise in fun – it has
become such an integral part of my day.
Jane Austen very cleverly put it, “we are all fools in love,” - I find
it rather romantic to pray for my one-and-only because he exists somewhere in
the confinement of this planet and he is
on his way, on his way since the beginning… My name written across his
heart... AWW!
I was
discussing my prayer adventure with a close friend who expressed her lack of
understanding in regards to novenas and I am no expert, but this is what I have learnt in
my short experience of prayer. From the
novena to Saint Joseph- I got to walk alongside Joseph and study his character,
his love for Mary, his dedication to young Jesus and his strong faith in God. I
closed the nine day prayer with a better comprehension of who Jesus’ earthly
father was and witnessed the selfless love with which he loved. I want to love like that one day (aww). My last novena, the one to Saint Valentine
has been the most romantic - in the prayer I ask God to prepare me for my
spouse and to assist me in my efforts.
It’s always so nice to get God involved!
From all four I have learned to love in a way that wants the best for my
beloved – and to enjoy my singleness as a time of preparation. To be patient and wait on Him… I found some
mistletoe today so if you guys see my man out there, with my name written
across his heart, send him our way (wink).
We Come in a Two-for-One deal!
