Hi all,

God has been amazing in answering all my prayers in His timing!

Five years ago I met and fell in-love with . The reason why I did not pursue her was that she was not a Christian and she had a boyfriend. I became close friends with her and discovered a beautiful, but down to earth woman, good morally, and we had so much in common except for Christ.

We drifted apart over the past couple of years because I moved to a different university. But did remain in-touch. I've never had a more authentic friendship with anyone in my life. It was a jewel I treasured. I continually prayed that she may come to know God and be saved so that we can be friends for eternity.

We re-united again this year and it was good to see how each of us has matured. To my pleasent surprise I found out that she became a Christian a few years ago and is at a point in her life where she is leading other women. She has become recently single and all those feelings I had in the past have been rekindled. I'm happy and excited. What I've been praying God about is that she be single for a while and get deeply connected to God because she has never really been single. She must find contentment in her singleness before I pursue her. I want to be number 2 in her life after God. And am willing to wait until I am sure about this.

Please pray that I may be patient in this area even if it means that I lose her to another man. I will encourage her as a brother and a close friend. Please pray for our hearts.

I pray and hope that she be the one because I'm falling in-love with her all over again.

Yours in Christ,

Zonto

That's awesome that she has finally turned to Christ, and awesome job trusting him to bring you through in your relationship in the way he desires instead of rushing it. That shows true maturity and trust in God that you are willing to put your own plans on hold so that you know for sure you are walking in God's will. I'm sure God will continue answering your prayers according to His will. This story can be an encouragement to many, thank you for sharing. *prayers as well*
