So it has been like forever since I have posted on my blog and to tell you the truth I haven't had the time to sit down and write. So much has been going on, this may just be a long post, but on the other hand I don't even know if I have the energy to write. First and foremost I am getting married and I am no longer on the journey of dating; this was not particularly an easy process, but I'm not going to talk about the past at this moment in blog. I will however be talking about my beautiful future wife. She is utterly amazing and honestly an unexpected treasure in my life.
On one side family I am so very happy to be at this place, to be loved, to be in love (I have an interesting take on what being in love in means, but once again another blog.), she makes me very happy, I'm getting married, I'm steps away from being able to be a provider, a life long friend, life long lover, and walk in the garden of God's amazing gift of marriage and of course the guilt free.
The interesting thing of all this besides the planning, the honeymoon, and just our marriage has been a welcomed challenge and a gift, but the thing that has been the most awe inspiring thing is that she has made it possible for me to see how someone can love you and your imperfections. I didn't know preparing to become a husband would make clear the imperfections that envelope me, I can see them very clear now, and I also understand on some level what it means to love your wife life Christ loves the church.
God loves me as I am and loves me unconditionally; it appears even before she said yes that she loves me and all my flaws.
This new view and this new perspective on my life romantic and otherwise; I'm learning that I am afraid, unprepared, and utterly begging God to see that I have to rely on HIM because I am so very afraid of failing HIM, failing her, and failing my new family.
So with that being said I have also had a number of promotions at my job, and now I'm also on a whole new team
So did I mention I'm getting MARRIED!!!!!
