I'll Wait For You

I grew up listening to the songs “Wait For Me” by Rebecca St. James. In my quest to find love I often reflected on her words.

Darling did you know that I
I dream about you
Waiting for the look in your eyes
When we meet for the first time
Darling did you know that I
I pray about you
Praying that you will hold on
And keep your loving eyes only for me

Darling did you know I dream about life together
Knowing it will be forever
I’ll be yours and you’ll be mine
And darling when I say
Till death do us part
I’ll mean it with all of my heart
Now and always faithful to you

Now I know you may have made mistakes
But there’s forgiveness and a second chance
So wait for me
Darling wait for me
Wait for me
wait for me

Chorus:
Cause, I am waiting for
Praying for you darling
Wait for me too
Wait for me as I wait for you
Cause, I am waiting for
Praying for you darling
Wait for me too
Wait for me as I wait for you
Darling wait
Darling wait

Every time I got close to finding a guy I’d be disappointed because he wasn’t even close to being my dream. There was one guy about 8 years ago I thought was supposed to be the one. But he left me hurting and broken. I regretted everything I said and did.

And those letters I wrote him.

Back then I didn’t know yet that I was a writer, but I now understand why I felt so outraged that I wasted my words on someone who didn’t deserve it.

Skip to now.

I was invited to the P4CM (Passion 4 Christ Movement) by my friend Oraia Speaks. I went to LA and used my special pass to sit a few rows away from the front.

It’s super cool to look back.

That was my last month as a single person.

But I didn’t know it yet.

At the event, I heard Janette…ikz speak on “Waiting” for her future spouse. Can I tell you that I’ve gained more recognition from my two second cameo appearance in her You Tube video than any of my speaking videos or talks? I love this! She pretty much summed up everything in my single heart on waiting for my future husband.

Marc asked me out a few short weeks after the event.

And like Janette said…his name was not Luke Warm!

To all the single ladies (and gents). Listen and be encouraged in the waiting!
