Who is my Mr. Right?

At the age of 25, I’m very anxious to know who is my Mr. Right will be. Well, to be more biblical, I would call him my “Adam”. You know the story. Adam and Eve…Eve was created for Adam. I always told my best friend bout this and she always scolds me. Ya la…why so hurry. I’m only 25, she says and there are still many years ahead before I’m totally ready for marriage life (Only God knows when is the right time…”Indah pada waktunya”.

Anyway, this issue is not new to me. As a Christian, marriage is a life time commitment and not something that you can change when you get bored with it…I’m looking for God’s chosen man of course, that has a same vision with me. Or my vision is same with him. Different character is not a problem. I’m introvert and I realized I need an extrovert person to make the relationship more blooming, if God’s willing, of course. I need someone who completes me…mungkin lebih mudah kalau saya katakan dalam BM…sesorang yang melengkapi dan saling melengkapi di antara satu sama lain…I’ve no experience but this is my prayer. The question is…what are the criteria that I’m looking for? The best answer to this question is Psalm 112. That has been my prayer for the last two years until now. Have I found ‘him’? hmmmm….nope… I can only say ‘I’ve found him’ on my wedding day and that’s definite…Amen.

Psalm 112 (New International Version)

1^[a] Praise the LORD. ^[b]
Blessed is the man who fears the LORD,
who finds great delight in his commands.

2 His children will be mighty in the land;
the generation of the upright will be blessed.

3 Wealth and riches are in his house,
and his righteousness endures forever.

4 Even in darkness light dawns for the upright,
for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man. ^[c]

5 Good will come to him who is generous and lends freely,
who conducts his affairs with justice.

6 Surely he will never be shaken;
a righteous man will be remembered forever.

7 He will have no fear of bad news;
his heart is steadfast, trusting in the LORD.

8 His heart is secure, he will have no fear;
in the end he will look in triumph on his foes.

9 He has scattered abroad his gifts to the poor,
his righteousness endures forever;
his horn ^[d] will be lifted high in honor.

10 The wicked man will see and be vexed,
he will gnash his teeth and waste away;
the longings of the wicked will come to nothing
