My Greatest Earthly Blessing

Pro 18:22 Whoso findeth a wife findeth a good thing, and obtaineth favour of the LORD.

Many years ago, I met a girl online and video chatted with her only 30 seconds on yahoo messenger. After the short chat where we exchanged email addresses, I bowed my head in sincere prayer and asked God that this beautiful lady, that wowed my heart in 30 seconds, would be my wife someday.

I PRAYED, “Lord, I want this woman to be my wife one day, yet your will be done.”

During that 30 seconds we exchange email addresses and we began chatting exclusively with each other. We lived 12 times zones apart, so we would chat at noon her time and midnight my time. We would chat for at least one hour each day and I don’t think we missed a day for over a year.

There was something special and different about this lady. She was obviously beautiful, but this beauty was so much deeper than what you could see on the surface.

We are again separate again by 12 time zones. After many wonderful years of marriage. We chat every day and look forward to our reunion. Our chat times each day are for many hours. I am thankful for video chat so I can see my wife and son. We are far away geographically, but so close in our hearts. The text verse I used is so true. When God gives you another person to share your life with. The good and the bad. The happy and sad! The sunny day and rainy days! To not be alone in this life and to have a virtuous woman at your side makes even the toughest days bright. One touch, one smile, one look from her changes everything.

Virtuous Woman
