Inthewaiting Stories

While I Wait for You is an intimate collection of letters written by a woman to the husband she has not yet met. She doesn't know his name. She doesn't know where he is, what he looks like, or when their paths will cross. But somewhere between ordinary days, quiet nights, answered prayers, disappointments, laughter and moments of loneliness, she finds herself thinking about him. These pages become her secret conversations with a future she cannot see. She tells him about the days she wished he were beside her. The moments she needed someone to hold her. The things that made her smile. The lessons that changed her. The relationships that taught her what love is-and what love should never be. She tells him about the woman she is becoming while he is still a stranger. But this is not simply a story about waiting for a husband. It is a story about becoming. While she waits for love, she learns to love herself. While she waits for companionship, she learns to stand on her own. While she waits for a family, she builds a life. And while she wonders where he is, she discovers more about who she is meant to become. Perhaps he is somewhere living his own story. Perhaps he is being prepared for her just as she is being prepared for him. Or perhaps the greatest love story was never only about finding him. Perhaps it was about finding herself first. And one day, if he finally reads these pages, he will discover something he never knew: Before she knew his face, before she heard his voice, before she knew his name- she was already writing to him.

Sometimes we all feel a little stuck and this poetry book is to remind you, you aren't alone. God is walking right there beside you the whole way through. One day in your life, probably multiple times in your life you're going to come to a point where you've done all you can do. In those times it can be so frustrating because we can't see it, but God is working in our lives and we just have to trust him. Trusting is so scary but He knows better than we do, He has planned our lives before we were even born so don't forget He already knows. Let that bring you comfort, the God who loves you, knows your situation and He is bigger than it.

Exploring life from realistic and optimistic views, trying to cope with what we can't control. We are humans, just being.
