Love...

Its a word that is thrown around casually these days. I'm even guilty of using it casually. God has called us to love everyone, but what does it mean when you say I love you. I absolutely LOVE Allen. I'm in love with him. In the past I have loved people, but I have never been in love. Its funny, when people ask you how you know you love someone. I always used to hate it when people would say "You'll just know", but its true. Its different than anything else I have experienced. You just know! Its crazy that I thought I was in love before, because compared to Allen those people in my past mean nothing to me.

It's amazing to me how God HAS written my love story. That sounds corny I know, but as I look back at my life and what He has brought me through I can see the way He saved me from things. He saved me from the wrong people. He saved me from a life that could have been really hard. I'm not saying life won't be hard now, but now I have an AMAZING man of God that I can share my life with. A man that will take care of me and love me. He'll respect me and keep me safe. He will pray with me and lead me in a path toward Christ. Its not just a relationship anymore. Its going to be my life. He is going to be my partner. Any flaw that he has is special, because I still can see the good in those flaws. I love him! I absolutley Love him!

For those who didnt know, we will be getting married August of '09. I'M ENGAGED!
