2 Changes

So there are two things I want to add to my blog:

1st) I want to blog more, and even if I dont have anything deep and meaningful to say- but just random thoughts will do. I hope you think so too. :)

2nd) I want to add WAY more pictures to each post. Lets face it, pictures are just fun.

With those two resolutions out on the table, thus my 1st new and improved post:

TODAY IS FRIDAY! OH and what a happy day it is! Praise Jesus for weekends!!!! And speaking of, Praise Jesus for fiances who encourage you and continuously point you back to Jesus daily! I cant wait to marry such a God fearing man! And how blessed I am to be marrying such a spiritual leader! :)

Life update:
my time currently is spent wedding planning, and paper writing (which I should be doing right now...)
UMMMMM its hard though to efficiently write a paper when planning a wedding is SO MUCH FOR FUN! Whatever professors thought that paper writing was an effective use of our time- WERE WRONG!! SO VERY WRONG!
This picture describes perfectly how I feel about the whole research paper writig thing:


And this is how I feel about wedding planning:


There are some things words can't express. :)
Farewell for now!

Soon.

Occationally I will find a song that just seems to say exactly what my soul cant.
This is entitled "Soon" by Hillsong United:

"Soon and very soon
My King is coming
Robed in righteousness
And crowned with love
When I see Him, I shall be made like Him
Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon
I'll be going to the place He has prepared for me
Then my sin erased, my shame forgotten
Soon and very soon

I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon

Soon and very soon
See the procession
The angels and the elders round the throne
At His feet I'll lay
My crowns, my worship
Soon and very soon

I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon

Though I have not seen Him
My heart knows Him well
Jesus Christ the Lamb, the Lord of heaven

I will be with the One I love
With unveiled face I'll see Him
There my soul with be satisfied
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon
Soon and very soon"
-Brooke Fasier, Hillsong United.

Also, I just wanted to post a sermon by John Piper that my fiance and I watched the other day. The subject matter was 100% by coincidence, but God knew I needed to hear it. Not that I was struggling with this (because I'm not married yet)- BUT it was great to watch in preparation of our marriage and it was definitely something to
"chew" on ! I want to learn everything God shows me concerning marriage because I so desire to be a Godly wife that honors my husband and my sweet Jesus!
