I Told You She Was Blown

So my friend stopped by for some baked delectables and she told me this....

"Yo, I had to call my bestie about that 'forsaking all others' thing. Had me totally blown still!"

Girl...I get it.

One of my mentors said this....

"She doesn't know what you've offered her. She can't comprehend it. She can't accept it. There are people that are married that haven't offered that much to their own spouses!"

The more it tumbles around in my head, the more I realize how true that is. There are still places God shows me and says "That's another place where forsaking all others reaches. Is it still true for you?" To be honest, I didn't even comprehend fully what it meant when I said I'd forsake all others. He's still showing me that. He's still probing the recesses of my heart to show me who I am and who I can be in Him. The only reason I believed I could and can commit to that is because I know He's with me, in me, moving me and making me better. He's equipping the called.

The unbelievably moving thing about all of this is

"Yes.
Yes, its still true for me.
Yes, forsaking all others, I'd choose her.
If I ever stop choosing her it'll be because You explicitly tell me to stop."



Its in that space that He challenges my faith and reminds me of the commitments I've made and the timeline He's given me in my waiting.
His Grace in the waiting continues to astound me.
The sufficiency of His Grace is beyond me...its Him.
Its who He is.
