The Statistics of a Man's heart: mainly mine.
1071 days, as of today.
28 replies of "No" by verbal or evasive communication.
28 broken female hearts.
28 opportunities to have been married or serious relationships otherwise.
1 worried/upset mother who keeps prodding at when I'm getting married.
1 mother telling me she wants me to find the girl, but isn't ready to be a grandma.
countless tears, prayers, yells, calms, drinks, pains, joys
worth while time seeking God - which is irreplaceable
learning patience, grace, listening, keeping a bold face, gripping my teeth and holding fast.
Life lessons that you can't read about. Priceless moments that I wouldn't trade for anything - even if it hurts.
Stats were never my thing, but they happened to me anyway.
This is 1 out of 1 person surveyed, and I don't know if there's a larger control group.
But I very much trust God. The gospel is my motivation above all. The cross is what moves me. Jesus is the one who saves me, sanctifies me and carries me. His scripture has never been brighter to me.
Soli Deo Gloria - there will be a future pastors wife for me.
