Growing with someone…






Keep this in mind. This is for all: the recently
married, the ones who have been married, the
soon to get married, and the ones who are still
looking............


Years ago, I asked God to give me a
partner, "You don't own because you didn't ask"


God said. Not only I asked for a spouse but also
explained what kind of spouse I wanted. I want a
nice, tender, forgiving, passionate, honest,
peaceful, generous, understanding, pleasant,
warm, intelligent, humorous, attentive,
compassionate and truthful. I even mentioned the
physical characteristics I dreamt about. As time
went by I added the required list of my wanted
spouse.


One night, in my prayer, God talked to my
heart: "My servant, I cannot give you what you
want",I asked God why? God said "Because I am
God and I am fair.God is the truth and all I do are true and right"


I asked "God, I don't understand why I cannot have
what I ask from you? "God answered, "I will
explain. It is not fair and right for Me to fulfill your
demand because I cannot give something that is
not your own self.It is not fair to give someone who is full of love to
you if sometimes you are still hostile, or to give
you someone generous but sometimes you can
be cruel; or someone forgiving, however, you still
hide revenge; someone understanding, however,
you are very insensitive....




" He then said to me : "It is better for Me to give
you someone who I know could grow to have
all qualities you are searching rather than to make
you waste your time to find someone who already
have the qualities you want."


our partner would be bone from your bone and
flesh from your flesh and you will see yourself in
her and both of you will be one. Marriage is like
a school. It is a life-long an education. It is where
you and your partner make adjustment and aim
not merely to please each other, but to be better
human beings and to make a solid teamwork. I do
not give you a perfect partner, because you are not
perfect either. I give you a partner with whom you
would grow together.
