I am my Beloved’s, and my Beloved is mine:

IMG_20180101_145813_2And so the reason that my fingers have not typed a blog article for so long…..is that I found my beloved! Yes I have found myself in the happy state of matrimony once again! God is so good to give us our hearts desires!

I will try to make this as short and sweet as possible but I have to share how God has allowed my heart to love once again.

It did not happen overnight. I was not struck with “oh…he’s the one!” I was wooed most gently and Love came softly.

In 2013 I found my heart broken in a million pieces. I was emotionally spent with an unexpected and unwanted divorce. I could not have made it without God’s amazing grace to pull me through that hard place. While in the middle of my hard place there was one, besides the Lord, who was a loyal friend in my time of distress. A divorcée himself and my ex-husbands brother! In my mind there was no chance of me marrying him! So I thought. What could be the harm in a friendship with him? God had other plans.

They say, in order to win or keep someone’s love, is to learn their love language. Learn and study it. Timothy Barrios made a priority of learning mine. Not only did he study it, but he prayed that God would help him to win my love through it. His prayers were eventually answered as I found myself slowly falling for this man I said I wouldn’t marry! Yes, God had to work on my heart too. I had to resign to Gods will. And as much as I fought it at first, God was healing my heart by showing me a devoted love, unconditional, and unrelenting.

As our friendship grew, I realized I was being wooed by Timothy’s love for me. As we sought the Lord for our future, we both prayed that God would give us a definite sign of the possible path before us. We both prayed for a specific event that seemed humanly impossible to happen. After much prayer and fasting it happened! God answered that prayer! Why are we so surprised when God gives us what we pray for?

To this day we cannot believe that God put us together. His thoughts are not our thoughts, His ways are not our ways. Isa. 55:8

I am so blessed to be able to share an intimate love again. God has healed my heart wounds and put happiness in my heart again as Timothy reminds me everyday that I am his beloved!
