After college, I was bound for home.
To rest and reconnect with my family in the north.
But heaven blocked my path.
A matchmaker came with Chris that day
She spoke like one who sees my future.
Her message was like light shining on my dark path
Awestruck by her message, I relinquished my plans.
That day a new chapter of my life began.
Like a mother eagle, she took me to her nest.
shaping my mind and heart
She fed me with words that sparkled like gems.
Radiating with spiritual sense and great value
Unveiling my eyes to see my being and purpose,
where I came from and where I am going.
Marriage after college was not in my thoughts.
Getting there when financially able was my resolve.
Not now. Not yet.
But her message activated a reset of my resolve.
She lifted my spirit to perceive the essence of marrying now
That overshadowed my unpreparedness.
Heaven opened,
Revealing what was inscribed in the book of my life.
About a marriage bond forged in heaven
With my wife to fulfill both our spiritual purposes.
In completing the unfinished task of our ancient past.
A mystery not everyone would comprehend or believe.
But it made sense—transcending the unknown;
Unfolding a divine glimpse of the future
That propelled a decisive quantum leap.
I was like immersed in a river, delighting in its gentle and warm current.
Reshaping me. Rebooting my spirit to soar above the flesh.
The flesh fading like a fleeting shadow.
The spirit emerging as the tangible human on earth.
Serving as the divine core of life in a shakeable world.
