Today, a song came to my heart, and I was suddenly confronted with the realisation that I don’t need someone that ‘ticks all the right boxes’.. All I need is someone who loves God and has unwavering trust in Him, and all the rest, will simply follow. He would be like a treasure chest, surprise after surprise, and it just keeps getting better… Because he would be a gift from my Lord… And I pray that I would be a treasure chest for him too.
[Untitled love song/poem]
Lord, I just want someone that’s in love with You
That’s all that really matters
Coz I know, the more he loves You, the more he would love me too
I’ve gone through the valleys of temptation,
At times distracting, at times confusing,
I’m tired of the mistakes I’ve made, I’ve been such a fool.
And now I kneel before you, thankful for all the times You’ve protected me.
And now I know…
Lord, I just want someone that’s in love with You
That’s all that really matters
Coz I know, the more he loves You, the more he would love me too
I see his scars, but I sense his strength, his character, his depth
We share about all that you’ve helped us through
You’ve healed our wounds, you’ve made us whole,
And now we sit hand in hand under the stars, we marvel at Your perfect will.
And now I know…
Lord, all I need is someone that’s in love with You
That’s all that really matters
Coz I know, the more he loves You, the more he would love me too

For my future husband, whoever you are, wherever you may be. I’m praying for and thinking of you….
