    I accepted Mr Luke's marriage proposal

    Forgive me sisters if I make a typo, but I got awoken in the middle of the night to a marriage proposal.

    Well, it was not exactly unexpected but none the less just as exciting. As you know I have been residing with Pastor John and his lovely wife Rebekkah since Daddy died. They live in Perth (Western Australia) and it has been so hard in the city for me. Nowhere can you get decent kangaroo steak or koala fillets for a good pie.

    Pastor John and Beccy used to have the North Shore Baptist Church in Sydney before they came to Western Australia. And Disciple Luke was one of their parishioners over there. He and his three sons came to WA (for a brief visit) at Pastor John's invitation after Dad passed away.

    I just got a phone call from Disciple Luke. He wants us to marry. Of course he had already asked Pastor John's permission. Oh sweet Jesus. I said YES.

    I did. I said YES.

        Oh Sister Charli, I would love to be a bridesmaid for you. Don't worry about the date, I can arrange to have my affairs sorted out on short notice.

        It will be so exciting to be part of your wedding, it has also been awhile since I have to WA so it will be wonderful holiday also. I am just imagining what a pretty bride your will be.

          Well what do you know about that. A few months ago Jesus kills Luke's wife and takes her home, a few weeks ago Jesus kill your father and takes him home. Now Jesus has guided you to Luke, just a coincidence? I think not, God does work in mysterious ways.
          Praise Jesus, the ultimate match maker in Heaven.

            Oh good Lord NO Mr Dewitt. Jesus is a match maker on earth, not in Heaven.

            He did not send my Daddy to be with Mr Luke's deceased wife. Daddy went to heaven to be reunited with Mummy who died 30 years ago.

            I do pray that Mrs Sarah (Luke's deceased wife) has been united with her kin in Heaven. I am sure she is.

            As a "step" Mum, I will never replace her in the boys life.

              I think you misunderstood me, in now way did I mean that Jesus took Luke's wife to be with your father. He just took them home.

                Miss Charli.

                Ours is definitely a match made on this planet that God created.

                I can not wait to make you the official carer of my boys.

                  Yes He did. Praise Jesus. To a better home than we could offer here. To a temple.

                  4 One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple.

                      Thank you so much Miss Annie.

                      Right now it is all a bit overwhelming - although not totally unexpected.

                      Mister Luke's boys are just gorgeous. And I look forward to bringing them up. I will always remind them and tell them about their real Mum who they so tragically lost.

                      Maybe .... maybe .... maybe God will give Mr Luke and myself a child of mine.

                        If that is what you desire, then I am willing to try.
