one year

The Song of Solomon sermon series by Neil continues to provide encouragement and hope for a future relationship. I am understanding more and more of the nature of a marriage relationship - the way God intended. The sermon was out "Essentials of Intimacy". One essential being PREPARATION ... to 1) WISE UP (get out of debt, take responsibility for your situation and change it 2) GROW UP (don't act like you're in your 20s forever) and 3) SHAPE UP (your personality, your body, your life)

Here's the question for thought and reflection:
For the single person: IF YOU KNEW FOR A FACT THAT YOU WOULD BE MARRIED IN ONE YEAR, WHAT WOULD YOU DO TO BE PREPARING AND BE READY FOR THAT?

That question left me....well, speechless! I know that he didn't mean it in terms of the wedding, but in terms of personally - what would I be doing today and in the days ahead that would allow me to be vulnerable and honest and willing to be intimate with someone?

I just hadn't thought of it in that way before. I am beginning to realize how the things that have been on my heart and mind for a while now are the very things that God is using to prepare for that day - whether it is one year or whenever. What do you think?
