A Letter for Every Single Christian Woman
Who Just Wants To Find Mr. Right
by MidoriLei
Dear Miss Right,
I could ask you the same question.
None of us were created
to be alone, we thrive off of love
and relationship, so I think it’d
be mutually beneficial for us
to find each other quickly. The
truth is, and this is where most
guys won’t admit it, I need you
as much as you need me. I’ve
tried to be one of those super
macho guys, but in all honesty,
in my heart, nothing could be
more satisfying than to be your
sensitive and loving provider,
your husband. My plans and
ideas are everywhere. I ask God
daily for direction and confirmation.
God’s the only one with
the big picture, because I’m as
lost as you are. I know that there
are wonderful things out there
for us to discover together, God
will reveal them to each of us
in time. There IS a reason we’re
still not together. Logically it’s
because we haven’t met… or if
we have, we haven’t gotten to
know each other. You’re not the
only one without a line of ducks,
I think some of mine might actually
be geese, in which case, I
have to be rid of them and find
the ducks to fill their spots.
I agree with you wholeheartedly
about the right woman
and the wrong time being the
wrong woman. The same can
be said for guys. And truthfully,
God’s been dealing with me on
issues that would only bring our
relationship down. I struggle
with the idea of being forgiven
without cause, and I need to
learn to be more accepting of
grace. Until I am, please don’t
give up on me. Truthfully, the
reason we’re not together is that
I’ve asked God to hold off on
our introduction until I’m ready
to be the man you deserve. I
have some of the same fears.
Trust me, nothing’s scarier for
a guy than to think that he’ll be
the emotional head over heels
in love one, while you look on
in disdain. I want to get lightheaded
when you walk into a
room, and I want you to melt at
my smile. Don’t be afraid, you
can never ask too much of God.
Nothing is beyond His capacity.
The very reason you feel like I
should be these things for you,
is because God has created a
desire in you specifically for me
and only me, who will be these
things, and you won’t be happy
with any other guy.
And believe me, I’m far from
perfect. My heart aches at the
very thought of you getting me.
I’m the undeserving one. It’s not
fair that someone with a past
like mine gets coupled with the
woman of his dreams. But the
beauty of grace, is that it makes
life not fair. I AM looking for you,
and I’m waiting for God to deem
the time right for us to meet. The
fact that I know you’re out there
doing the same, only strengthens
me further. I hate to disappoint
you, but I’m very much into
movies and TV… Luckily, to have
an interest in something does
not necessarily mean to believe
it. Love is not a feeling or emotion
that coincides with “Happily
Ever After”, it’s a choice. And I’ve
decided to love you unconditionally
into eternity.
Admittedly, a good appearance
is nice, but appearances can be
deceiving. Don’t worry about it;
be yourself. My eyes were made
with you in mind, so I’d say you
have an advantage over other
women. And besides, if you
make yourself look too good,
you’ll run the risk of attracting
more than just me… I don’t want
to have to fend the hounds off
my woman! Your imperfections
are what make you you, and
I can put you just as easily on
my screensaver or wall, as any
of those other women. And the
best part is, then I’ll have the
real thing right by my side to
keep me warm. Good luck with
the cover snatching, you’ll need
it. (lol) While there are a lot of
pretty women out there, there’s
only one for me. I would never
settle for someone I could live
with, and you shouldn’t either.
Where’s the fun in that? I’m the
one you could never imagine life
without.
I’m the guy you might notice at
first, but only in that, vague sort
of way, but if you got to know
me, you’d find a soul that yearns
after God, and that’s what will
help you understand the plan
God has laid out for the both
of us. If I only saw beauty from
the world’s perspective, I’d be a
rather lonely individual, wouldn’t
I? There is none more beautiful
than a beautiful soul. I can’t wait
to be captivated by yours. I’d
take on all the pain the world
could throw at you, and you’d be
the heaven that helped me bare
it. I’ll be the first to admit, I struggle
with taking a passive role. It’s
hard to be a leader with no one
to lead. Your point is valid, however,
I find it ironic that you were
the one to initiate this conversation,
to which I am responding.
I have difficulty knowing who to
pursue, I guess my biggest fear is
accidentally getting in too deep
with someone that’s not you. I
have been hurt and rejected, and
mostly because I’ve pursued…
In fact, most of the stupid things
I’ve done have come from “the
hunt.” Maybe I should learn
to do less shooting and more
tracking. I can’t just fire into the
crowds and hope for a hit. God
has directed me on how to set
my sights to find you. And you’ll
be my trophy wife. (lol, couldn’t
help myself with that one.) I’ll
have you know, if you think
I’d get married for the sake of
getting married, maybe it’s you
that’s looking in the wrong places.
Marriage is a commitment for
life, and that’s a commitment I’d
be miserable to make to anyone
but you. That and I want my rib
back. I’ll tell you what, my rib for
the covers, sound like a deal?
There is no one I’d rather build
my life with.
We’ll have our pitfalls, but we’ll
also have our mountain tops,
and there’s no one I’d rather share
my adventure with because I
know that there’s no way I can
grow to be the man God wants me
to be without you by my side.
I’m getting kinda tired myself. It’s
58 days after New Year’s Eve, and
I kissed no one… I was actually
oblivious to the clock altogether
as I was watching Monty Python’s
Flying Circus (but that’s another
story). Believe me, I’d rather have
been in your arms. I wasn’t truly
alone, but I was as good as. I’m
one of the ones that feels lonely
in a crowd, because I just don’t fit
in. I’m not of this world, and that’s
how you’ll be able to pick me out.
I can’t wait till I can hold you as we
usher in our first New Year together.
It’ll be my happiest moment…
until the next time you smile.
Good night to you, my love! God’s
time is His own, but I pray daily
that He take into consideration
our time not spent together is
time lost. I’ll search for you until I
die, but I trust God to make sure
it doesn’t take that long. Don’t
settle for Mister Sorta Charming,
because trust me, when you meet
me, he’s going to look like the
frog. I know not what form you’ll
take, but I know you’ll be the
woman God’s formed for and from
me. I know you will have honesty,
faith, tenderness, and a pure
heart: each a beauty in and of its
own. Even one of these is worth
waiting an eternity for. I’ve loved
you as long as you have me, and
for the same reason. Don’t give up
waiting for me, I’m searching for
you. When we do finally meet, you
can be sure God will have orchestrated
it to bring out the both in
best of us and to glorify Him in the
greatest means possible. God’s
been moving in both of our lives,
and He’s been moving us together.
It’s only a matter of time before
that finally happens.
Forever Yours,
Mister Right
