The beginning of this year, I had wondered whether I had been accidentally nicked by cupid's arrow; and now it's finally clear to me that I was never the intended target. One of the most important characteristics to me is One who LOVES GOD; but for this person, "godly" would not be the first adjective I'd think of to describe him - "nice" or "talented" maybe, but not "godly". That alone should've driven it home; but, it took a couple of stabs of feelings of rejection before I acknowledged it.
Yesterday, I once again firmly placed my thorn on the alter; and prayed for God's healing where the thorn has pierced. And, I had to smile, for I could see that He was already at work. He brought someone whom I greatly admire and respect to tell me that I am one of his favorite people in this world. Knowing all the amazing people that he knows, that is quite a touching and encouraging statement that I know is from God. God loves me and cares for me, and I am grateful.
