I Don't Mind Waiting

Now really? Do relationships really work? Is there a formula that will help it last? According to Val, relationships "that worked" were a thing of the past.

Val was a young lady who had experienced a few hardships in her life. After losing her father (whom she cherished) to cancer and was betrayed by the one she was settling for as the man of her dreams, she became bitter toward relationships. Of course, they worked for some, but it was truly unrealistic to think that there was someone out there for everyone.

Val's faith faltered, and she strayed away from God and the church, but after a couple years of backsliding, she found her way back and was now determined to do things right according to the plan that God intended for her life.

After years of being a third wheel to one of her best friends, Toni, and her man, could it be that her future rested behind the wheel of a squad car?

A man that looked THIS good was NOT going to be faithful (or was he)? And HIS insecurities and double standards might serve as a warning (or would they)?

Val enjoys a lot of firsts with her newfound love, and the two enjoy each other's company as they get to know one another. But is that enough?

Trust issues and conflicts could place the relationship on hold, but counsel from the other bestie and others help them to see the error of their ways, and feisty Val recognizes that God will not leave her side if she only trusts Him. And yes, there IS a formula. It's written right there in His Word (the Bible), and when it's all said and done, Val doesn't mind waiting!

Wait on the Lord: be of good courage, and He shall strengthen thine heart: wait, I say, on the Lord. (Psalm 27:14)
