I Love Jason
I heard this song the pther day that just perfectly explains what happened to me. It is kind of an old song, but I had not heard it before. I thought I would post the lyrics:
Unanswered Prayers
Just the other night at a hometown football game
My wife and I ran into my old high school flame
And as I introduced them, the past came back to me
And I couldn't help but think of the way things used to be.
She was the one that I'd wanted for all times
And each night I'd be praying that God would make her mine
And if He'd only grant me this wish I wished back then
I'd never ask for anything again.
Sometimes I thank God for unanswered prayers
Remember when you're talking to the Man upstairs
That just because He doesn't answer doesn't mean that he don't care
Some of God's greatest gifts are unanswered prayers.
She wasn't quite the angle I remembered in my dreams
And I could tell that time had changed me in her eyes it seemed
We tried to talk about the old days, there wasn't much we could recall
I guess the Lord knows what He's doing after all.
And as she walked away, I looked at my wife
And then and there thanked the good Lord for all the gifts in my life.
*Chorus*
I just love that. In high school I thought that I wanted to be with this one guy more than anything. I would pray and pray about it and God would never let it happen. Now I see why, because I am more happy now than I ever would have been with him.
