Katie's prayer: Richard Smallwood & Vision's "Healing"

When I first started to listen to this song, I thought God messed up. This song was all about getting healing. I didn’t need healing from anything. After a few times of listening, I finally heard the intro to the song...

Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal.
I don't care what your friends say,
I don't care what your family says. There's healing.


And immediately I was reminded of this youtube video I saw yesterday.



And it hit me, God didn’t mess up. In fact, this is one of the times where God hit the nail right on the head. The waiting is the hardest part about being single. Cause I know and I feel that this isn’t the end. Someday, I will reach my desires of getting a husband and having kids. But not today. Wait. The longer I’ve heard that message the harder it is to follow. Especially now when friends (some younger than me) are getting married. Especially now when I start to get the feeling that this guy I thought was interested in me too might not actually be. Especially when the ONLY answer I get from God is wait. Not wait for x amount of time (which is really what I’d prefer).

Tonight my prayer is for healing from this apparent inability to wait patiently.
