The Promise of One

I promised I wouldn't do this again unless I knew without any doubt that it would be the last time.
When it began to unravel, I begged and pleaded the One who answered my prayer to completely take it away if it wouldn't last past the initial feeling.
Day and night I prayed. Week after week I fasted. Trying to find direction, an indication of approval. One day it came. It was unexpected the way it happened but it did.
Then began the signs of approval.
I promised I would trust the promise even if it meant waiting and possibly sharing.
Then came the test to prove rather or not my words were true.
It was the roughest time of my life. Seeing and knowing, yet having to trust the promise. Nights of asking the Promise Keeper, show me the reminding stars of the covenant.
Then came a boldness. A made up mind that I did not want to share. I want it all or nothing and since I was promised it all, I wasn't settling for anything less.
That weekend was the showing of stars as doors closed and yet that main door remained open to me.
There has been many times of looking up for stars of reassurance since then. But a faith remains inside that He is faithful to perform what He has promised. He knows no boundaries, no time table, no circumstance hinders His ability to do whatever He wants whenever He wants. He is always on time and when He unfolds the rose, He always make it right. I know where the road will end up at and the journey is just beginning. Each step ordered. Each detail handcrafted by the masterful hand of the Potter.
Built upon of the foundation of righteousness with Him being the Chief Cornerstone, I will continue to trust and believe that there is coming a day very soon, when two will intertwine and become one. And that which begins to grow will stand the test of time and circumstance because it's built by the Creator to last a lifetime here and eternity beyond the great divide.
