True love usually does not come in a hurry, but with preparation, time, and a heart ready to receive it. This is Rebecca Simon’s place Finding God Every Day it reminds us that trusting God’s timing prepares our hearts for lasting connection—read more below.
There is someone out there with a quiet heart who is preparing to meet yours.
You haven’t found it yet. You are not crazy. You may not even live in the same city or speak the same language. But already, there is something deep that unites you. It is a soft, invisible thread that runs through the foundation of your days – leading you to a moment that has already been written for you, a moment where two stories will meet, a moment that will change your life completely. Not by luck, but by fate.
It’s tempting to believe that love comes into one’s life only through external effort – by swiping, or editing, or searching based on what has worked for those who have found connection before you. But deep love often comes in a unique way. It does not happen in pursuit, but in preparation, in time. Because at the end of the day, God doesn’t just bring people into your life—he aligns them with the version of you that you’re ready to receive. Lasting love doesn’t need you to chase it. It asks you to be ready for it. To be open enough to see it when it comes—even if it doesn’t look the way you expected.
There’s a reason you haven’t met the person for your heart yet. Maybe they learn to live. Maybe you are learning to be quiet. Maybe life softens the parts of you that once pushed deeper. Maybe God is still gently repairing the wounds that would have made it difficult to see each other clearly, to hold each other in the dark. There is grace in waiting, because it means you won’t bump into each other early – you will come when your hearts can respect each other. And if you do, you won’t feel rushed. It won’t feel forced. It will feel like you’re coming home—like something old in you realizing something old in them.
Please don’t forget that even in the waiting—the series is still ongoing. Quietly, and faithfully. Through conversations that shape you. For the places you are called to go. With your deviance, you didn’t expect it to change you so deeply. At peak times it opens up enough to let in more light. And slowly, without realizing it, you become the kind of person who not only finds that love – but keeps it. The kind of person you can root for. The kind of person you can appreciate and grow with. The kind of person who finds the kind of love that is not just a feeling, but a foundation. Home.
Love is not forgotten. Your story continues, and somewhere far away, someone is being shaped by it again. Someone whose prayers may sound like yours. A person who heals in the places you are in, learns the way you are, has hope with a broken heart to the same degree as you.
Remember – true love is out there, and it’s on its way to you.
