In every single place in my life, I pray that God's will be done in my life. It doesn't matter what I want, I just want to do what God wants for me. He knows better than I do what is best for me, and we are to go to God as children, which is what we are anyway in the grand scheme of things. I accept God's will in my life always.
EXCEPT..... one problem. I want to decide who my future wife will be.
I don't even want to get married, but I will do it because I will abide by God's will, and I won't be able to live my life without a woman. Since I can't have sexual relations outside of marriage, I will have to get married. Don't worry, I won't be a bad husband that regretfully entered into marriage. I will be a good husband.
But my problem is.... what if God's will for my life, the wife he is going to give me, is not as attractive to me as I want? This is the -ONE- and only area of my life that I will not sacrifice in again. I love God, and his will be done, but not in this.
I already sacrificed for 5+ years with an average/ugly woman who I was engaged to, and she left me anyway. I already did the whole "looks don't matter, compatibility and love is what matters"... I already did it. And guess what, she betrayed me anyway and our relationship was over.
I have also sacrificed a lot of my youth with no sex, even though I am a man with STRONG libido and urges. I have sacrificed a lot already and I am done in this department.
So I am over it. I don't care about it anymore. When I have a wife, I want to be very sexually satisfied, take care of my family, and keep my family happy. I don't want to compromise in this area ever again. I want a woman who I think is physically gorgeous and also believes in God.
So I am having trouble within my heart. If God brings me a wife, when it's time, who is "good for me" but is not what I want physically, I am not going to be able to accept God's will in this part.
Do you think it's possible for God to help me out here and make an exception and allow me this one thing, or am I screwed and have to accept God's will or else bring trouble upon myself by "going it my own way" ???
