Waiting

"I could write a million songs about the way you say my name,
 I could live a lifetime with you and then do it all again.
 But like I can't force the sun to rise or hasten summer's start,
 Neither should I rush my way into your heart."

I just can't get enough of these lines from the song"Love is waiting" by Brooke Fraser. More so because it has a scriptural backing-Songs of  Songs 8:4 which says "not to awaken love until the time is right".

This has always helped me. When I begin"liking" someone, I wait. It's hard, but God knows I have been saved from so many heartaches, disappointments and disasters because I waited. Patience is a virtue. Time is a great"reveal-er". I have had my fair share of heartbreaks,I know the only safe place my fragile heart can be is in my protective Father's hands. So I wait on Him. My heart is no longer mine to give. Really.

That's why,while I know love is beautiful I would have none of it until I hear my Father say,"Go on!"
