Wow...it's been awhile since I've written a public post.  I've been writing on here alot...just not so everyone can read it!  God has been really good!  I got to go visit Word of Life this past weekend and it was awesome!  I went to visit my brother and my fiance and I'm so excited about Jon and how he's doing up there.  I'm really praying for him this year especially and it's really cool to see the work that God is doing already.  I got to hear Tom Philips preach and it was awesome as usual.  He preached on Proverbs 24 and the kinds of people we should and should not hang out with.  Instead of focusing on that I flipped it around on myself.  I asked myself, "Am I the kind of person (according to Proverbs) that other people should hang out with?"  It was really convicting.

I also had this really weird revelation the other day.  Dan and I were really disappointed that we couldn't get married in March and then I realized the other day that might be because of me.  I know in my heart if I am honest with myself that I am not ready to be Dan's wife according to God's standards.  I have so much work to do to become the godly wife that he needs and that God wants me to be!  So...I am on a quest to learn all I can about my role and how best to fulfill it.  I have started actually reading the books on marraige and being a godly wife that I have gotten from work and I have once again started doing my quiet time.  If you think about it...please pray for me.  I have a really hard time staying faithful when I'm at home and surrounded by the world. 

In other news...the wedding planning is becoming exciting!  We are starting to talk about where we wanna take our honeymoon and we might have actually made a decision!  I can't believe how many details there are and for the first time in my life I am not procrastinating!  Things are moving along even though it seems like our wedding day is never going to get here!  I am trying to be patient though!
