with these rings

I stare at my left hand...I'm easily distracted these days. I see 2 beautiful rings that now adorn a once jewel-less hand. The emotions instantly wash over me, I'm blessed.

A wise friend once told me "Stef, when you least expect it, when you're not even looking and totally focus on God, then He will bring your man into your life". I agreed and said, "yeah... you're probably right". She was speaking from experience. I wasn't looking, I wasn't interested in "getting to know" any of the guys around me. And when I met this man my heart continued to say "Lord, only you".

But God, in His infinite wisdom, had planned this meeting and He changed my heart as time went on.

And I am blessed. I am now the wife of my best friend. And these rings daily remind me of HIS goodness, faithfulness and provision.

Psalm 13:6 - "I will sing to the Lord, because He has dealt bountifully with me."

Psalm 16:11 - "You will show me the path of life; in Your presence is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore."
