This is not mine, but its truly fitting to how I want to describe the future man in my life. Enjoy!
He is…
God is,
My man is,
My man understands his place in my heart is second to just One.
He walks confidently with that knowledge,
Understands it,
Embraces it,
Knows its worth,
I too am second to One.
Beyond looking good in a suit and tie…
Beyond raising his voice in the choir…
Beyond passing the collection plate…
His hand is in God’s hand,
Mine is in His,
Ours are intertwined.
His strength comes from above,
Pulsates through our home and is supported by my love,
He is aware of his power,
Aware of his presence,
Of his heart,
My heart,
He is worthy,
I am cherished,
He protects,
I care,
He is genuine,
I am authentic,
We trust,
We love,
We create,
Our composition brings forth happiness,
We work,
We laugh,
We fight,
We cling,
We cry,
He giggles,
I smile,
We pray,
We dream,
There is joy.
We are in love,
We are love,
A just-for-us love,
A forever-growing love,
An abounding love,
A respect-for-self love,
A forgiving love,
Just-show-me love,
A receiving love,
A “dust you off and kiss it where it hurts” love,
I want the “work your hardest and breathe” love,
Just breathe love.
He is whole,
I supplement him,
I am complete,
He increases me.
We have choice.
I choose him.
I am chosen.
We know we are chosen.
Facades have fallen,
Representatives removed,
An orderly walk deep in reality,
We are aware of our truth,
We respect our love,
My man,
I,
He.

This was a hard lesson for me to learn. I know this doesn't sound like a lesson, but it was me clearing my head after the end of a relationship. I realized that I can't rely on a imperfect person to fill my glass half full or even partially full. That will only result in disappointment. I never again want to put someone in the position of irrefutable failure. I have to rely on myself to fill that glass. And I know that will only come through a strong relationship with God. It's the God within me that fills my cup. My partner increases me, he doesn't complete me. Once I gained this understanding and started applying it to my life the repetition ceased. God is good and sees much more for each one of us than we could ever imagine. Thank you for sharing my words, thank you for the love. ~Melanie
