I think that there's one thing I'm entitled to be selfish with in my life and that's love. I've been thinking a lot about God's plan for my life...or lack of knowledge of said plan. Despite my lack of knowledge thereof, I've determined a few things which are as follows.
I want love to be real. I don't want to waste time playing games and wondering what's supposed to be happening. I want love that is honest and straightforward.
I want a man. A provider, a strong support and a man willing to be a good father.
I want a man of faith. A man who loves his God more than he loves me.
I want to be worthy of his love.
The reason I titled this post as such lends to what I want in love. I don't mean some sort of romantic movie love where they meet, fall in love, conflict arises, but then it turns out all right in the end. I don't think that's realistic.
As much as I love fairytales, I don't think they refer to realistic love, although the dragon part is somewhat helpful.
If you want to talk about real love take a look at these:
Ephesians 5:21-30
John 3:16
These verses have been quoted time and time again, but they recently spoke to me with new meaning. Meaning that since I am a beloved child of God, I deserve the best. Best as in God's plan, the perfect plan for my life.
So I guess I just want to be loved. Truly, madly and deeply.
