Patiently Waiting
Karenna is every woman. She has faced and overcome many obstacles
in her life; from financial struggles, returning to school later in
life, to raising three children as a single mother, as well as the day to
day struggle of just keeping it all together. She is doing what she can,
to take care of her kids and try to get a little pleasure out of life along
the way. But what she longed for was something more. Someone to
love her, support her and to treat her like Boaz treated Ruth, a couple
she had read about in The Bible. But up until now every relationship
she had, had fell short of her hopes and dreams. Then she had an encounter
with God and everything changed. This experience revealed
to her, that she was living for herself and not God and by living for
herself she was missing what God had for her. She now must face
the task of relearning who she is. What she needs, verses what she
thought she wanted.
Her encounter with God left an aroma on her that got the attention
of Kasey Maverick, a handsome, middle-aged man that seemed out
of her league—socially, emotionally, financially and spiritually. But
she knew there was something special about him, and he was her
Boaz. But in order for her to be prepared for her God-given mate,
the residue of her past; the rape, promiscuity, depression, low self-esteem
and the feelings of unworthiness had to be washed away. All
she could do was wait and submit to the work God was doing in her.
The waiting taught her patience, and patience built an endurance to
handle just about anything that life through her way. It also taught
her that anything is possible with God, and when you put God first
in your life everything else that is your heart’s desire would follow—
including her Boaz.
