So… with only eight more days to go I have finally realized that I am getting married! It hit me this morning. YAHOO! I have been wondering when I was going to get excited or actually feel like this is really happening.
God’s grace has been so evident during this whole process. He has provided us with even more than I could have ever imagined. We are paying for things that I never thought would have been possible… we are even going on a Honeymoon! We are still praying and searching for a living space, I really really really do not want to come home to my parents basement. Ugh. But… if that is what God has…. I hope not… but if it is what He wants, than I just pray that he will give me peace. =0)
One thing I am so excited about is actually getting to spend time alone with Ryan. Ever since we re-committed our relationship and really understood what that meant we have spend very very very little time just the two of us. We are usually in a group or in public places or at his house with the 8 other people that live there. We no longer go to my house because there is no room and being alone is encouraged (not helpful). It will be so nice to be able to relax together as opposed to always having to be doing something in order to spend time with each other. Also, in order to try and kill our sexual sin against one another we have not kissed each other in over a year… I think it is closer to two years (we have been “involved” (involved meaning dating) for 5 years). Even though I have experienced that before, I forgot what it is like and I can not wait to be able to kiss him goodnight =0)
I do have a couple of requests if you would not mind praying for us…
- Somewhere to live, and no matter where it is, we would know without a doubt that that is where God wants us.
- I hate flying!!! Pray for a smooth and safe flight to and from our Honeymoon.
- THat I would not be anxious/ stressed/ frustrated throughout this up coming week. That I would stay focused on God and cast all of my anxieties on him.
- That our Wedding Day will not be a blur, that we will be able to enjoy it.
- Pray that I don’t break out. I do that when I get overwhelmed.
Thanks guys! Hope to see you there! Saturday, April 19, 2008- 5:00 PM
