“But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, Neither have entered into the heart of man, The things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 1 Corinthians 2:9
During Tiffany's and my wedding, we were going to have a love song played called, “My Something Better.” Little did I know, she was going to sing it to me as well. Tears rolled down my face as she sang it so beautifully to me.
You see, both of us had baggage, hurts and broken hearts. We still held onto our faith in Jesus Christ, but were almost at the end of our rope when it came to hoping for a likeminded person to share our love and life with. We both were reserved to thinking a single life would be what was ahead for us.
But God! Sometimes I just love those two words! It marks something pivotal in the plans God has for us. When it seems that there is nothing left - Christ comes onto the scene and displays His greatness. I call Tiffany my gift of hope from Christ, for that is what she is. We are of like mind and heart and praise God for each other.
It’s just like God to take what we thought at the time was the best He had for us, but ended, and totally show us something better! It is purely His grace and mercy that brought Tiffany and I together. We know that fact and cherish each other for the gifts we are to one another.
Now when reading 1 Corinthians 2:9, we think of what Christ has for us when we go to be with Him, home in heaven, but it is more. It can also apply to what He has planned for us in this life with Him now. Truly, I could not have imagined what He has blessed me with in Tiffany.
We encourage you, to wait on God and let the Holy Spirit comfort you in anything you are waiting for. Make Christ first in your life - to the point that He is all that matters. When He knows He has your heart, mind, and soul - that’s when He surprises us sometimes. He will have something for you and you’ll be able to sing, like Tiffany did - “This is my something better.”
