Matthew 6:25

Fast Forward

,

Well, it’s exactly 6 years after Chris died. As you’ll recall this past January, I wrote a blog titled, “Where Am I Now?” I wrote that I was moving forward with my life and had started dating in 2019, with the goal of finding someone to fall in love with and get married again.

After being in a couple of relationships that didn’t work out. I joined online dating again, praying that God would open the door to the right man and close the door on the men that weren’t right for me. Not only was God closing the door on every man, he was quickly slamming the door shut. Discouraged, thinking God was telling me this wasn’t the right time, I was about ready to call it quits for a while. But first, I got down on my knees and poured my heart out to God, telling Him that I really want to move forward with my life and find a great man to marry.

Then “Mr. Right” messaged me through Match.com.

God’s Perfect Timing

The evening of June 24, 2016, Chris was comatose. The nurse told me he may pass that night. Time ticked on. I had an hour of sleep in the last two days, and our sons had traveled from afar to be with their dad.

“Come on, Chris, we’re so tired. What are you waiting for?” I asked during the wee hours the next morning. It sounded callous, and my words shocked everyone, including myself. Exhaustion had taken over.

The hours continued to pass.
