Rambling...
Madea said "God answers prayers immediately".
I asked for a good man.
A God-fearing man.
A man who will love me like I know I'll love him back.
A man who will be my best friend til the end.
A man who I enjoy looking at and I'll feel his enjoyment of looking at me.
God is like a satellite dish.
He knows where you are, he knows where what you want is.
Then you have life. Life is like a GPS system.
You have to get on some highways. Sometimes you run into traffic.
Sometimes there's a roadblock and then you have to go around.
This is God's way of conditioning me.
I'm not ready for this man for me. I have to learn to appreciate him.
So he sends this heartache and heartbreak in order to prepare me.
The car you're traveling in may even break down a few times.
Most people will give up. Shut down. Turn around.
I think I'll keep pushing forward.
Through the hurts... Through the disappointments...
He, the man I prayed for, HAS to be out there.
Because God answers prayers.
Am I ready for him? Only God knows.
I wrote these words to shore up my foundation.
I was losing faith in MY self-worth.
So I had to give myself a good talking to.
Reading back over this, I have to ask myself:
Why is My Mind Ridiculously Logical?

I read the line 'God is like a satellite dish' as 'God is a satellite dish' cause I liked it better that way - it reminded me of the line 'my mother is a fish' in As I Lay Dying. Probably didn't read it and understand it in the way you meant it to be read though...I read it as if I was saying something like 'God is a shoe.'

If that means you enjoyed it even more then by all means read it however you want. As long as you read it. :o)
