I'm definitely NOT a medical person, buuuuuut I was listening to someone talk about transplants and they were talking about that when someone is a donor for a kidney transplant, a donor can either be COMPATIBLE or a PERFECT MATCH!!!
.
Its not as hard to find a compatible match as it is to find a perfect match. Usually, altho not always, it will take a little a longer to of a wait to find a PERFECT MATCH!!! Of course when your life is hanging on the line, its NOT really your main concern if the person that is donating to you weather or not they are a PERFECT MATCH!!!
.
Buuuuuut what about within RELATIONSHIPS??? Why do we live our lives sometimes looking for a compatible spouse like our whole entire life is on the line??? How many times do we find ourselves willing to settle for someone that we are just compatible with??? Wouldn't it make soooo much more sense if we would just WAIT ON GOD for that PERFECT MATCH!?!?!?
.
Yes, we want someone that LOVES GOD with all their heart! Yes, we want someone that our personalities fit with!!! I think those two things make compatibility between two people, buuuuut so often we forget one more thing, THE CALL OF GOD!!! What has God called you too??? Do your callings match??? When you add in THE CALL of God factor, I think that's when you go from just compatibility to THE PERFECT MATCH.
.
I remember this one time, I felt soooo sad because this guy just didn't share my passions with me. And I just felt God impress on me, don't be sad Mary, I have someone for you that does!!! Another time I remember thinking, i'm sooooo DIFFERENT, I'm kinda weird, buuuuut just feel so STRONGLY about certain things, I just can't help the way that I am!!! I would think, THERE IS NO ONE ELSE THAT FEELS THIS WAY!!! Annnnd God just let me to know that it was going to take a VERY SPECIAL PERSON TO MARRY ME!!! Annnnnd I'm STILL waiting for that VERY SPECIAL PERSON!!!!
.
Sometimes we try to make someone that we are compatible with to BE WHAT WE WANT THEM TO BE!!! We both LOVE GOD and EVEN our personalities CLICK...buuuuut...something still lacks...We want them to share our passions, our burdens our callings, our desires, our callings and feel frustrated when they don't! You have to either accept them the way that they are OR WAIT ON GOD!!! Getting married shouldn't be an act of desperation. In my personal opinion, it just seems like something as big and as important as marriage would be worth waiting for the perfect match.
GOD'S MATCH!!!
