Sweeter Love
by Rebecca Woodbury
-
Today, be patient, small heart of mine.
Look not about, but rest in a love divine.
Tomorrow, perhaps, God may choose to bring,
Another to love - this time an earthly thing.
-
But today, small heart, look quick away,
From meaningful glances and men just wanting to play.
Quiet the longings that spring from within,
And turn from the ache to find rest in Him.
-
Though sweet may be this song of love,
Let not a flirting eye distract you from above.
You, my heart, have already been claimed,
And Jesus has your Prince been named.
-
So today find joy in a love superb,
Gracious, compassionate, more than what's deserved.
Give Jesus your wantings, give Him your needs,
For He will supply, if only we believe.

  8. this truly helps all the girls in gods world to see that he has the right guy waiting for you. one that will not cheat on you, use you and drop you, or just quit loving you for some reson. it also helped me to know for sure no matter what happens i need to save myself for my future husband who awaits for me as the same. God will have the right guy for you and all you have to do is wait for gods timing and this is hard to say because i am a girl and i know how we feel, but this is the right way to wait and we should all take this into consideration.
