Sweetheart...

Dear Sweetheart,

For many years I sought to find my most perfect mate, but all that ever resulted from my search were shattered dreams, a broken heart and what seemed to be an endless wait. I wanted to find God’s very best, but first He had to teach me that in His loving hands, I must solely rest.

So one evening I prayed, “God, just as you put Adam to sleep until the perfect one for him, he was ready to meet; so put me and my desires to sleep until I too am ready to know the one you have chosen for me.”

From that time forward God gave me a peace. And although others came into my life God protected my heart and spared me from more strife. Then when God knew that in His hands I had placed my heart, He brought you into my life and I was history from the start.

My dear friends who know me well perhaps see tomorrow as a miraculous day. For they have known me and all my picky ways. Once while in the dorm, A.M. came into my room and asked me just exactly what I was looking for in a man. I ran to my diary and pulled out a list of 30 qualities I was looking for and on which I would insist.

As I read each trait one by one, Dear A.M. looked at me, she was very stunned. After pondering the list she said with a nod, “ Well Cindy, looks like you’ll have to marry God.” Well, God you are not, but my Heaven on earth you are. God heard my prayers and answered them in the most perfect way with you.

I have no unanswered questions, no doubts, no hesitations, no reservations.

You are my Prince Charming, my knight in shining armor, my gift from the sea, my gift from God.”

~Cindy Jordan Feldewerth



Ladies, it can happen! It's happened with numerous women. We just have to be patient and wait upon the Lord. I know it's hard, I struggle with it daily. But we have to remember:

His timing, not ours.

His arrangement, not ours.

His planning, not ours.

What does your Prince Charming look like to you?

Don't settle for less than God's best.

"Delight yourself in the LORD and he will give you the desires of your heart."
~Psalm 37:4

Your Prince Charming is worth the wait.
