Jeremiah 33:3 says “Call
to me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do
not know”.
On our first official date, he asked
me to bring my Bible. I was like ”eeeerrrrr….ok”. I mean, I have a Bible and I bring it with me
BUT not on a date. And besides, I have
never met a man who asked me to bring a Bible on a casual meeting. Anyway,
so be it, I brought one.
After finding a spot in Calaruega
where we can comfortably sit, he asked me to share my fave verse and so I mentioned
Jeremiah 33:3. He shared his fave next. We talked about it and discovered two
things: his Bible is King James and mine
is NIV (do the thinking!haha) second was
our peg on our “spirituality”.
The man who asked me to discuss
Jeremiah33:3 is the man I will marry three months from now. I am still uneasy of a lot of things a
married girl should do or be like so I try to always remind myself that God
will tell me things I do not know – from the smallest to the most
intricate - God will let me know.
Three months. 12 weeks.
Yes, I am pressured. Sometimes, stressed. Most of the times, wondering. Paano kaya? How will it be like to be married
to Bryan? How drastic will my routine
change? Could I actually manage a home and a husband? How will we be when we are in the same roof?
These are my thoughts as I put myself
to sleep. When still troubled, I recite
Jeremiah 33:3 in my head. God will tell
me what to do. He will direct me. He has been helpful and He will persistently be.
