A lot has happened since last I blogged....and a lot has changed. But the most significant thing that has happened recently happened 6 days ago, and was a day I shall never forget. It was a day I had been waiting for for a long time, even though it is a precursor of an even greater day. In this blog,I have written a lot about what all God has been teaching me and how I want to be the best I can be for God and for my future wife. Well, on August 14th, I proposed to her!
To me, marriage is God's invention. He thought of it, and instituted it. It is a precious and special picture of Christ and the Church. It is my prayer that our relationship and marriage will be a reflection of that relationship and will bring Him glory! It is truly wonderful when you let God write your love story.
So now, I am very happily engaged and eagerly awaiting the day for our marriage. There is plenty to do! Purity and holiness in this relationship are just as important if not more important in this exciting step. I deeply desire to continue to honor and love and cherish my future wife in any way I can! It is going to be interesting and exciting as I realize and live out more of how to love as Christ loves us. One thing is for sure! It is His love working in me!
So off I go onto a new adventure of engagement and soon (9 months) to Marriage! For Christ's Glory!
Thoughts and musings on following Christ, becoming a Warrior Poet, and living as a Disciple.
Oh, wow! That is so amazing! Your quest for purity and the truth of God is inspiring and touching. I think I'm going to share this blog with my brothers and my beau. :) Blessings and Prayers for your engagement and wedding!
