While doing my experiments this evening, was listening to IDMF Talk 5 by Edmund Chan on the inner life. He used the incident of Jesus with Mary and Martha to talk about the importance of the inner disposition above activities and geography.
God broke my heart towards the end of the talk. Was reminded that all I needed to always bear in mind is God's heart for the lost. All self-defeating barriers broke down and frustrations melted away.
Have been distracted by many things, especially issues dealing with my longing for a partner. Try as hard as I might, I find it hard to fed it off. Realise the only way is to fill my heart with God's word and His heart for the lost.
As God spoke into my heart in a powerful way, breakthrough also came towards some personal judgement I have with a tough situation I faced last week.
Praise Him. He alone is sufficient.

There is nothing wrong with longing for a life partner, unless you start to resent God for not bringing one into your life or pursue that goal at the expense of serving Him. Who can tell when (or whether) God will bring that person into our lives? But we can be assured that if we wait upon Him and let Him do His thing in His timing, things do work out for the best because our eyes, ears and minds cannot comprehend the GOODNESS that God has planned for us :) I am sure you will make a wonderful husband.
