Tie Dye For

Happy Valentines Day, loves!! In my twenties I would have in my twenty-year old immaturity dreaded this day because I didn’t have a man or flowers to show for it. But over the years that mentality has shifted drastically for me. Today is just another day! I’m planning on treating myself to a blow out and seeing The Photograph with my cousin for a fun little girls night out.

The Lord has shown me through love and heartbreak over the years that He has my best interest in mind and He wants the absolute best for me- nothing less. His promises are yes and amen. I know in my heart of hearts that the man He has for me will come in His perfect timing. Until then, I’ll continue to lift him up in prayer- I no lie do this every night LOL I pray over his heart, that he’s surrounded with men of integrity and accountability and that God is ordering His steps just as He’s ordering my very own. I have so much joy and satisfaction in God’s protection thus far and it’s enough for me to be content in the now. Ya’ll the Lord has literally snatched men out of my life with no explanation, has used people around me to point me to Him which essentially meant letting go of relationships that I thought were meant for me.

Until then, I am relishing in my single life- dance parties in my apartment, booking spontaneous trips to NYC, exploring Charlotte, focusing on my career and blog, spending my time volunteering, and just doing all the things because I can and because I don’t have anyone to answer to or anyone holding me back. There is so much beauty in this season and I don’t want to look back on this time and think it was wasted.

I encourage you to do the same if you are in a season of waiting on God’s best. Live your LIFE! Seek the Lord. Have quiet time with Him. Mentor someone. Do something you’ve always been afraid of doing or would be uncomfortable doing. Now is the time! Don’t waste another second, minute or hour just waiting around for him. Trust the Lord.
