To My Future Husband..

Piliippians 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situations, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your request to God."

I have never realy been boy crazy. But these days I (and God) have taken that to another level.
You see.. what I'm about to say might sound silly or made up.. But I truly feel like God has my "soulmate" here for me in Nashville. And I have felt this way for a while. I am not restricting God to this feeling but I feel a new peace that comes with the word "dating".

I am by no means ready to get married. Not even ready to date. (might sound pathetic to some considering the fact that I will be 18 in a month.) But being the best girlfriend/fiance/wife possible is what I'm going for. There's no telling how many Princes I could scare off if I tried to date them now. I am simply not the mature, Godly woman that I want my "soulmate" to look for.

I want to be the girl that guys know they can't have.

I want them to see qualities in me that they aspire to have in a wife. They have to be ready to pursue me in a way that would make my father proud and most importantly, I want it to be clear that I am off limits until then. I am not giong to bend my standards for someone who is willing to let me bend my stardards for them.

I have been praying for my future husband since I was a girl.

Why would I be preparing myself for a guy who is not prepared for me?
The guy God has picked out, ultimately will be perfect for me. He won't care that I am clumsy, forgetful, indecisive, COMPLETELY un-athletic and uncoordinated. Maybe he'll even like that about me? The only way this guy will be ready to handle me is if he is completely willing to let God change him.

Homegirls, don't let a guy change you, let GOD. I am confident God won't let me down. So whether or not I look back and say "When we met in Nashville.." or "When we were 18.." I want to be looking back at this blog in 20 years thinking "Wow, so glad I waited for the guy God had for me!" 
Psalm 25:21 "Let integrity and uprightness preserve me, For I wait for You."
