Reflections of the heart

The Latest... ♥

I came home sick from work today.
With the old pains of the month.
The days where we know that EVE truly did bite that apple.

After laying on the couch and vegging out through the pain I checked
my email.
I saw a CHRISTIANMINGLE email...

I clicked it.
Curiosity over took me.
I clicked some more.
I made a profile.
I clicked some more.
took a personality test.
I clicked some more.
Wrote about how I believe God will send me a man.
Wrote about how I was simply on the site out of curiosity.
Thought to myself I am not this desperate.
Clicked some more.

Found an attractive black man in UK who loves the Lord.
Clicked some more.
Sent him a prewritten question.
I can't even remember the question I clicked.
He was quite lovely.
And then I clicked off and looked both ways.

There is nothing wrong with internet dating in my opinion.
But I felt like my parents left and I snuck online and looked at
something that wasn't for my eyes.
Not dirty.
Just...like a curious naughty little kid.

And the fact that the only guy I saw of interest was a black man in
UK was quite interesting.
My idea of what the man God has for me will look like is a cross
between Paul Walker and the guy who played BullsEye in Daredevil.

I mean, I have been attracted to black guys.
I'm not my own race racist or anything.
But blue eyes and dark hair and pale skin tended to be the status quo.

I digress.

The shocking thing was seeing all these active members of this "Christian"
online dating site.
I say "Christian" loosely.
All on Fire?
I doubt.
All believe in Christ.
Sure.
All believe in the Trinity.
Under speculation...

I guess I let curiosity and the desires of my heart distract me for a minute.
I didn't have a conclusion for this I just wanted to confess my recent
adventure of online web surfing.

Well... one more thing....

What if?
What if I met my husband online??
What if that was how GOD "brought" Him to me.
I guess I kinda was hoping to find Him in that little click-a-thon of mine.
I guess the secret is that I had fun getting hopped up on Christian singles
lookin to Mingle.
 ha ha
Seriously though.
I would be lieing if I told you that I was closed off to the idea.
I just want things to look a certain way and I didn't want to admit that
I intentionally got click happy searching for my husband.

THERE!
I said it.

AND no I am not ashamed.
