All year long a few lessons have been reiterated in my life. As you all know, I am in a very long-distance relationship. What I have noticed almost from the beginning is how deliberate it is. How specifically God allowed both of us to make decisions that could not have been made without painstakingly intricate methods.
Trusting God in this relationship other than relying on my own stifled photo that God has is not always the right thing to do. I tend to want to cut myself off when it has gotten difficult simply because of the distance. Not knowing what God may be doing otherwise with us in mind as a couple. We are very well suited to each other though and more determined as ever after this past year to work harder to be together sooner.
I have never left God out of this relationship I knew that first week I made him wait to hear from me I needed to pray for guidance and for answers. We make sense together and work well together like this week has shown. It has not been a cake walk we have both had to work to make time for each other and support the situations we have been in. We are best friends and confidants who have stood up and challenged each other when necessary. We love talking about the food I make that he wants to eat, bantering and family. It’s also fun to tease and flirt with him.
We are stronger than ever because we have learned from our mistakes and we’re still learning, but we communicate about the important issues that have to be broached difficult or not. We have made it through the most difficult year and we are coming out on top. God has used this year to build us up slowly and gradually after a rough springtime. We won’t take this year and its effects for granted, we have learned how to be us as a couple nearing the end of our long-distance part of our relationship.
