Like everyone, I have those days where my little thoughts wander to my future eternal companion. I wonder who it will be...how I'll meet him...how our day at the temple will be...etc. However, the number one thing I know I need to do is not be anxious about it. I can plan for my future and work on being the best wife and mother possible, but as far as worrying about how and when I'll meet him...that's all in the Lord's hands.
With these thoughts running through my mind this morning, I came upon this blog talking about love. The women talked about the commercial, worldy love, and then how the love of God is infinite...pure...and cannot even be comprehended by even the apostles of olden times. I looked below at the comments, and a reader left her thoughts, and then posted this letter written in Heavenly Father's perspective-author unknown. May I share it with you?
"On His Plan For Your Mate
Everyone longs to give himself completely to someone: to have a deep soul relationship with another; to be loved thoroughly and exclusively. But, God to a Christian says, no, not until you are satisfied, fulfilled, and content with being loved by Me, alone. With giving yourself totally and unreservedly to Me. To having an intensely personal and unique relationship with Me, alone. Discovering that only in Me is your satisfaction to be found, will you be capable of the perfect human relationship that I plan for you.
You will never be united with another until you are united with Me, really united with another, exclusive of anyone, or anything else, exclusive of any other desires or longings. I want you to stop planning, stop wishing, and allow Me to give you the most thrilling plan existing...one that you cannot imagine.
I want you to have the best, please allow Me to bring it to you. Just keep watching Me...expecting the greatest things. Keep experiencing the satisfaction that I Am. And keep listening and learning the things I tell you.
You just wait, that's all...wait. Don't be anxious, don't worry, don't look around at the things that others have gotten or I have given them. Don't look at the things you think you want. Just keep on looking towards Me, or you will miss what I want to show you. And then, when you are ready , I'll surprise you with a love far more wonderful than anything you would dream of.
You see, until you are ready and until the one I have for you is ready, and I am working even at this moment to have both of you ready at the same time. Until you are both satisfied exclusively with Me and the life I prepare for you, you won't be able to experience the love that exemplifies your relationship with Me. And this is perfect love. And, dear one, I want you to have the most wonderful love.
I want to see in you, in the flesh a picture of your relationship with Me. And I want you to enjoy materially, the everlasting union and beauty and perfection and love that I offer you with Myself. I know that I love you utterly. I am El Shaddai-most loving Father, God Almighty. Believe it and be satisfied and I will satisfy you.

Wow. Right? Stop fretting about it, stop biting your nails over it-just appreciate everything Heavenly Father has given you, trust in Him, love Him, believe in Him, and when we are both ready...he will give us one another-a gift of the most wonderful love! He knows how hard we all work to be the best we can be so that we can one day be worthy of our future companion. He will give us what we worked so hard for-and we will grow together with the love of God imprinted permanently in our hearts!
I really adore this picture. ;)
Love Always,
Little Besty
