Love is in the air!!!

Love is such a blessing from above! Lately I have been surrounded by love, and love it! My Lord and Savior shows me love each and every day and pours out His grace upon me, even when I mess up so badly. My hubby also loves me unconditionally, and is so very good to me. My friends and family are such examples of love as well. I recently got the opportunity to wish my best friends Justin and Hannah Wofford a Happy 1st Anniversary! A year ago Sunday I had the priviledge to stand with them as they exchanged vows in front of friends, family, and God. They are such a joy to me and I am so happy that God brought them together.

In 18 days, my other best friend Leslie will be united in marriage with her sweetie Brian. I will be standing beside her as she begins this new journey in her life. Leslie, I pray that you and Brian put God first in all things, and the rest will fall into place. I am so happy for you two and wish you many years of love and hapiness. Never go to bed angry and keep your love alive! Also remember that love's not a fight, but it's something worth fighting for...

On July 16th, another sweet couple will be saying "I do." Amy Jo and Adam are such an example of God's perfect timing. They have come through a long journey to get to where they are, and it is so awesome to know that God knew what He was doing the whole time; guiding them and directing them towards each other's hearts. Amy & Adam, I know that God has such big plans for the two of you. Marriage is such a sweet blessing from above, and I know you will enjoy every minute of it...well, maybe not every minute, like when Adam leaves the toilet seat up, or Amy forgets to turn off her straightener and you have to go all the way back home to make sure it doesn't burn the neighborhood down. But you get my point. :)

Love is beautiful and I am so glad to see it all around me. Thank you, God, for showing us Your love, and for commanding us to love in return. I pray that we show love to others the way that You have first loved us...even to those we do not know.

Ahhh, friends...

"Life's truest happiness is found in friendships we make along the way." ~Anonymous

I love friends. I love my friends, I love my friends' friends, I love the show Friends, I just love the idea of friends! As life moves along, I find that I am more and more thankful for all of the friendships I have made along the way. I know that I have support in life's trials, and I also have someone to celebrate life's blessings with.

God has blessed me with some pretty amazing people to share my life with. I love the laughter we share, and the tears we cry together. Life would be pretty boring if it were not for friends.

To all of my friends out there, in case I fail to tell you often enough, I love you so much and am so thankful that God has blessed me with such wonderful amazing people to share in life's adventures with :)
