The Glass Slipper



There once was a lovely young lady who lost her shoe at a ball. She was so special that her prince searched through an entire kingdom of other young ladies to try and find her. He tried her shoe on several feet, until at last he found her. Yes, I am sure you have heard of this girl before—Cinderella.

Well, Cinderella’s shoe is somewhat like having the best person as your future mate. God in His infinite wisdom has a shoe that is just for you. Maybe someone else wants your shoe or maybe you think that you want someone else’s, but we all know what happens when our shoes don’t fit properly—Blisters! Trying to force your feet into an ill fitted relationship is bound to cause discomfort. And I don’t know about you, but when my shoes are too tight, it makes me feel grouchy! Being in a relationship that is not suited for you can also have a negative effect on your life. Yikes! This sounds pretty serious. So, what can you do to make sure that you are heading in a relationship that God wants you to be? Well, first you need to pray about it (especially when the heart beats "tugudugdug" for a certain person) That might sound cliché, but if you sincerely seek the Lord in this area, He will lead you to His Will for your life, He'll tell you whether he is the right person or not. Secondly, ask someone you trust like your discipler or a parent (well, i've got momidebz and momsie!) They can help you plug in to areas that you may have never considered--pagpamunga, youth reload and opencell. woohoo! And that's what you call actively waiting.
May this short entry reminds you (and me!) that true love can really wait. Be determined and have faith. Your prince is surely on his way and he's carrying one glass shoe that will fit perfectly for you! =)
