Oftentimes, I’ve asked the same question: why am I still in this season; whether my season is in the valley or the mountain. “Take me away; far, far away from this place” - much like Jenny’s prayer as a child in “Forrest Gump”. I’ve often wondered why God has yet to pluck me out of my situation. The rainy season, the drought - they take turns in my life & where I am right now has been a constant battle for about 13 years now. I question God, I ask Him foolish questions, I get angry - presumably, I’m not alone in this. However, I think I’ve figured out why He’s stayed silent all this time. I need to soak, to simmer, to grow in order to reap the harvest. I need to glory in my tribulations no matter how little or big it is. I need to just take a chill pill & let God manifest in my medications. There’s nothing like waiting for something. For someone. As long as I’m breathing, I am hopeful that things will turn around, work for the better for me, and I will be with him. There’s nothing like knowing God has created the perfect person for you. There’s nothing like being excited for that… no matter the innumerable times you’ve cried yourself to sleep. There is nothing like living out the dream when the sleep-mode is over. There is nothing like doing some things alone… silently waiting for the greatest gift your Heavenly Father can give you: the better of your other half. Post Valentine’s, I still feel the same as I did two days ago and yesterday. The need, the want, the yearn still remains. Increasingly so, as the hours go by. Though, there is nothing I can do but wait.
