ready

i am so amazed. my heart, my mind......wow.

i love how God works. how one day, you are not looking for anything, anyone......and you find them. how one day you are just friends, and the next you are talking about the future. how every little detail seems to be hand crafted by God.

all the way down to a lone squirrel, in the middle of winter, randomly running by you. and something in you says stop and remember this. and that night while talking, she says something about a sign from God to move on in the direction you are, and the thing that comes to her mind is what happened to you that morning. a random squirrel running by your feet.

that is not chance, that is not coincidence. maybe some of you think I'm off here, but i believe that was God.

i love how when we talk of the future together, i have never felt a deeper peace in my life than when i think of that. a peace that is not human. it is not natural. and at the same time i feel scared. but that peace takes control.

i am ready. society, parents, friends....whoever, might say 'slow down'. we might not be doing it the way everyone else, the way society says to do it. but who said people, society is right? God works in His own timing. not mans.

we are ready. ready to close our eyes, take a step of faith.....together.......and jump. trusting He will always be there for us. not doing so blindly......but assured.

so here we are. here i am. just shy of two months. and, i am about to do the scariest thing i have yet to do in my entire life.
