YES! I have been in deep prayer with Him every day and/or night this week. I am just waiting for Him to reveal and direct my path(s).
ETA: My pastor, Apostle Eric Warren, prophesied (sp?) to my congregation on New Year's that 2005 will be a year of harvest for the congregation; we will only need to stay in prayer and to not lose faith.

Based on your past comments regarding the type of women you would have some adjustments for, i.e. the next top model you said you liked, I think you may have a few misconceptions of what might be involved in a marriage--something that marriage enrichment can enhance... And marriage enrichment information is abound throughout the internet if you just Google...
I do not take you for being a "dawg", "playa", "pimp" or have pimped the "scene" too much--because honestly, one has to have A LOT of extramarital sex in order to do that and you cain't be coming across THAT WAY... Especially since you are so entrenched in the Gospel, which is fine (no problemo), however, it does leave you rather naive or shall I say, "open" to the temptations regarding the matters of love and marriage...
Should you lessen your knowledge and love for the Gospel, NO!!! Definitely NOT!!! That is your GREATEST ASSET OF ALL!!! Devotion to Christ!!! Bless you, always...
And I am just concerned about getting your hopes up for "things" based on your descriptions of what you desire in a woman that you'd want as a wife, that well, sweetheart, it is a tad bit unrealistic...
Lemme put it to you like this, I know and understand that you pray often for God to reveal and direct your path(s)... And as in matters of the heart, say you have read Harris' book, the heart does some misguiding and can override your logic and your mind... As you may be aware and probably have had some experiences already, desiring marriage and going from the heart can open you up to an attack from principalities that are not in your best interests...
Since you are trying to not be of the "world", then you have to remember that not all women you encounter, especially in church, are at your same level... That in fact, the woman you most desire, and is the most compatible for you and possibly be the one that God is directing to you might also be a "unbeliever", which may be your "path" to "convert"... You had indicated you like "foreign" women... What does The Bible say about King Solomon and "being equally yoked"... May be you have already considered that a possibility... I dunno... I can only go by your posts...
So the best thing to pray for is asking Christ for the strength while opening your eyes to see your path(s) in affairs of the heart and marriage... May be you do this already... And I am only going what you have posted on this topic...
Am I making any sense?
