I am absolutely convinced God divinely intends our
spouse.

"I am absolutely convinced God divinely intends ourspouse." (By Bill Hunt c. 2011) |
I
sat down on the left side of the stage podium and listened to this
coed play the magnificent organ with exposed silver pipes. Refrains
sounded all the way to the high ceiling and echoed the melody
throughout the auditorium. This organist sat behind a white shielding
screen in the center.
I
wasn't actively looking for a wife, but God held other plans for me.
I had returned to Syracuse University for my second year of special
studies. On this Sunday in July, I enjoyed reading the scriptures
from the podium during service in Crouse Auditorium at the Music
School.
This
coed played the magnificent organ through high exposed silver pipes. The
refrains ran all the way to the ceiling and echoed the melody
throughout the auditorium. This organist sat behind a white shielding
screen in the center.
Visible
from behind the screen, I could only watch her gorgeous energetic
legs busily playing the organ pedals as her hands played the keys.
There were thousands of attractive coeds on campus, but at a certain
moment in the service, this brunette stood up from behind the screen
where I could see her.
"O
Heavenly Father, I want one like that!" I whispered, hardly
daring to believe the honesty of my own prayer.
I
was serious. Her beauty overwhelmed me. Not only was she a great
musician, she appeared very intelligent, tall, and definitely
attractive.
"There's
a little shop down the street serving hot chocolate and cream donuts.
Would you care to have some with me?" I gulped and asked her
after the service was over.
"No,
I don't even know you," she said.
"My
name's Bill," I flustered.
"Beside,
I have my friends with me. I'll take a rain check," she answered
and walked off.
My
heart sank. I walked outside without talking to anyone, found my car,
and started to drive away around the back of the building.
Suddenly,
I noticed her and her lady friends entering a parked car as I passed.
At
her car door, she turned and glanced a very flirtatious smile at me.
My disappointment jumped back to excitement. “I'd like to meet that
girl!” And I held the faith I would.
