I’ve recently been reading a really good book by
Robin Jones Gunn and Tricia Goyer
called, wait for it… ‘Praying for
your Future Husband’- (Preparing your heart for his) – I had to include that to
make it sound less crazy. Hah. But seriously, as soon as I mentioned the title
of the book to my friends, the response I get is always that of hilarity. The
girls shyly smile or laugh hysterically, depending on how/when I bring it up…and the guys, well –
rather freaked out by the idea to be perfectly honest. I seem to not understand why the concept
of Praying for the ‘bone of my bones
& flesh of my flesh’ is stirring up such negative connotation. Surely we
can all relate to the idea that prayer is indeed powerful, and as we begin to
pray for someone else…we are also being changed/transformed in the process?
This should be great news for single ladies (myself included) to be aware of, knowing that there
is something they can invest in now that will make a huge difference in their
life and the life of their future husband?

I will wait for you...
I've been
thinking lately. Thinking about that four lettered word, L.O.V.E. (Don't run
away just as yet, I promise this is not one of those cheesy thoughts). I mean,
it's a pretty inevitable subject to think about, considering I've hit that
milestone age of 21. But recently (yesterday to be precise), I was reading a
blog by Alyssa Joy & it hit a VERY special place in my heart. So I've
decided to write about it. Ladies, this one’s particularly for you. But guys,
you’re more than welcome to read on and ponder.
'Love so amazing, so divine,
demands my soul, my life, my all'.
