"I am my Beloved's and my Beloved is mine" - Song of Solomon 6:3
After Church, that evening a group had gone out to eat at a "non-authentic really bad" Mexican Restaurant. A few people had invited my girly friend and I along. So, we went.
By the time we had gotten there, the long table was full, so we sat on the end of a long table of which the mystery man was at the head. It was obvious though that there were a few people in the group that had a little issue with us joining. But, at that time I was not aware that more than just a few people knew about the efforts of match-making us.
You must understand, at this time, I had not said anything but a few words at the little outdoor concert to him. And the only thing that I still knew about him was his name. He sings! And, I knew he dressed nice when he wasn’t wearing his one piece green military pajama suit. But, most importantly, he seemed to be liked well enough that any time he was around, everyone flocked to him like bees on honey. And,I knew he obviously loved the Lord.
I had also gathered that my Momma’s pianist friend didn’t just want to set me up with just anyone. She had plans with me hooking up with him! And now that I got caught up with the rumor that there was several different ladies involved with this match-making scheme, and some not aware of the Pianist Friends having the same idea, my curiosity was just a little more than peaked.
So, here I am trying not to get trapped by the ladies, all the while I am trying to figure out a way to just casually observe him, or at least get a glimpse of him.
In the end, I left knowing nothing more about this mystery man. And at that time, I was okay with it.
(Beloved has not additional comments to add, yet.)
I sure would LOVE to hear his side of this whole time-frame!
ReplyDeleteHa! Katie, you know my Beloved's time-frame consist of what he was doing while he is saving the World! ;)
ReplyDeleteAnd, to reveal anything else at this point wouldn't keep you reading!
I wish I could see you! I would love to travel down to "home." Maybe, May-ish! We will go to Wild Wings! Yum!
Oh, no... this is a story I have always wanted to hear! ;-)
ReplyDeleteI would LOVE to see you too! I should be over the worst of the sick phase by Spring (today has been a good day already so praying it is almost over!!). Just keep me posted. Maybe you can even sneak down and just stay here with me. (And of course, Wild Wings is a must!!)
