I am not through with you yet

I benched myself, so to speak.  With one divorce and one love dead, I was out.  I was content being a single mom.  I knew how to do it, and there was no risk.  It was a sweet time in my life.  I started going to Watermark Community Church.  I had heard the name and wanted my kids exposed to the radical love that I saw happening there...especially the godly men.  I got involved in a community group of women I am still in a group with.  I love them dearly.  They challenge me and make me a better person.  I grew so close to the Lord and learned to spend time with Him everyday...learning His word so I could have it engraved in my heart, praying and having conversation with Him.   Time does "heal" wounds (God's timing and God's way).  At one point I started talking with God, "Okay, I'm ready to get back out there."  It is the only time I have heard the Lord speak to me (the Holy Spirit interceding).  Seven words I will not forget.  I was on Lovers Lane under the Tollway.  "I am not through with you yet."  I listened.  I was happy.  I needed to find more friends that were like minded and running after Jesus...girl friends and get out there in world so I was not isolated.   I was baptized on May 18, 2008.  Jesus was my lover, my friend, my husband.
