I Thank God For The Blessing Of You

By

You came into my life unexpectedly, I’m just trying to pass the time around and hoping for an escape to take this weariness away within me, when suddenly you appeared into my gaze. In my mind I was like, “Hey, what could possibly go wrong? This is new, this is something, and I guess this would be nice.” Turns out that I’m right, when you started talking to me with a simple “Yo,” I never imagined that it will be the beginning of one, beautiful surprising story.

You’re one of those guys who has this charm, a simple enticing charm that probably most of the girls would really fall for. A combination of wit, humour, and strong words fills you that even the lightest of our conversations turns into relevant sharing of opinions and stories.

But then it came to a point where I paused for a while, didn’t have the chance to explain why and just ignored you as time passes by. But there’s this urge in me that’s kind of inviting and that tells me there’s something valuable I left behind. And so it goes, I returned to where I left you. The chitchats went to long arguments to long exchanging of life experiences and exchanging of phone numbers as well.

Until it brought us to where we are right now; you continuously pursuing me and I still waiting for that moment where God will permit us to take this into the next chapter of the story, of our story.

You’re just too good to be true that it makes me feel overwhelmed whenever you’re around. I never thought that this is possible, that someone like you could happen in my life. This is what I’ve been constantly praying to the Lord; a strike in my tedious life, a spark in my burnout light, a new matter to consume me inside. And you are that answered prayer, a blessing He gave in the form of a wonderful human.

Every time I whisper my little prayers to God, I always include you.

I always tell Him how grateful I am to be blessed by someone I never thought would come my way; someone who loves God so much and someone who means every word he says.

You’ve given me reasons to make my faith be better than it is and you challenged me to make it firm than it was before. You are my encouragement, my pocketful of sunshine, the cause of this beam, the uncanny thought to my emotions, the butterflies in my stomach, a light in my dim days, and one of my strongholds. Having you is like experiencing a turning point—little by little I’m going back to where I used to, to where I was once in, to where I would always belong.

This might sound overrated but I want you to know that you’re the game changer and I will always be thankful that you came along. I know that there’s still a lot to learn and a lot to encounter, but know this, I’m glad to say that I’m willing to take the risk, dive in deeper, and give this a chance.

You are that precious one I can’t afford to lose and a delightful blessing from God that has to be taken care of; I want you to know that it’s such a great privilege to have you, hold you, and love you all throughout.
