Yes, this is the third post in 3 days, which is probably something of a record for me. It’s mostly because the summer is started to get a little bit slow. I must admit that there is not much to entertain here at the moment. That means that the visit from the Royal Family today really livened things up.
Prince Edward of Wessex was here at Bob Jones University touring the Museum & Gallery today, as many of you know. He graced the campus with his presence and even did my coworkers and I the honor of walking right in front of our building so that we could have a clear view of royalty. However, someone remarked that he didn’t ‘look’ like a prince at all. He didn’t. In fact, he seemed rather like an ordinary man in a suit.
This got me to wondering. I’ve heard the phrase “someday my prince will come” many many times. But how will I know when he gets here?? He’ll probably look fairly ordinary, and I doubt if he’ll have a Royal Guard standing around him either. That makes things just a little more difficult. So, how will I know?
Not to be anticlimactic, but, I don’t think that’s for me to figure out right now. Sure, I would love to know what he looks like, or acts like, or maybe if he even exists or not, but I think that waiting is a part of what makes that ordinary guy transform into my handsome prince. So I’m good with waiting. Because transformations can take a while.
And the Lord knows I need transforming as well. I’m definitely not going to pop a curtsy and become a girl worthy of a prince overnight. That task could take years to happen. But I’m workin’ on it, I’m workin on it! As he transforms into a princely man of God, I’ll be working my way to a closer walk with the Prince of peace and a serene, godly outlook on life. I don’t want to be stuck in the ‘rags’ of this world; I want to be ready when he shows up at my door.
And that, my friends, is a goal worth fighting for.
