A Love Letter to my Beloved

My Beloved--

Another year past.
I find myself fighting some same battles
and facing some new battles

The yearn for a husband is still present
as well as for a full-time ministry position.
For clarity, for purpose, for opportunities.

In regards to my relationship with You,
I find myself wishing I could be more like You
More like the person You want me to be.

At times I am patient and content with Your timing
Other times I'm distant, negligent, or pensive
And yet other times, I'm angry and frustrated
Not knowing or understanding what Your will is

But You remain the faithful Bridegroom.
You remain the constant Friend
You remain the trustworthy Teacher

Despite my ups and downs
my strengths and weaknesses
my ebbs and flows

I remain,
Yours.
