Desiring What We Can't Have

Why do we desire things we can't have? It just seems inevitable. This "thing" in my life is what a ton of people desire and what a lot of people spend their lives looking for but sadly some never find. I'm talking about love.

Why is it so desirable? Well, I believe that God created us that way. I mean God is Love after all. Is it wrong to desire love? Of course not! It only becomes wrong when we desire it MORE than God. Which I admit I'm so guilty of.

I've often prayed for the Lord to just take away the desire at least till it's time for me to have someone. If there is indeed someone for me. Deep deep down I believe there is. Somewhere. Where? I don't have a clue.

I do pray for him (whomever he may be). I pray for his purity, for God to guard his mind, heart and soul and. . .eyes. Temptation is out there and I feel he needs all the prayer he can get. I also pray for patience for him. For him to become the best man he can be. The man God wants him to be. For God to prepare him for me and vise versa. I also just pray simple prayers like "God, give me an awesome day today". Just whatever comes to my mind.

When we do meet (if we do meet) I want to tell him that I prayed for him even before we met. It in small way this makes me feel "connected" to him already. It helps me feel better. So, until we meet and afterward my prayers are with him. :prayer:
