Dear future husband,

I want to start by saying that I've prayed for you for a long, long time. I've prayed for you even though I may not have met you yet, or know that you're my Mr. Right. You should know that I pray for you, your heart, for our future, and even my calling as your future wife.

I pray that you love God first. I pray that your heart may be lost in His word and His promises. I pray that your relationship with the Lord is strong and a path you wish to follow that can lead us together.

"Above all else, guard your heart, for everything you do flows from it."
Proverbs 4:23 [NIV]

I pray that you will be the leader that God has called you to be in your own life, but also in our future family. I pray that you will always be driven to follow God's call, even if it is well out of your comfort zone.

"Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for herto make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word,and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself.After all, no one ever hated their own body, but they feed and care for their body, just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body."
Ephesians 5:25-30 [NIV]

I pray that together we can be the hands and feet of Jesus. I pray that we can lead others to Christ through our words and our actions. I pray that we will go when we are called.

"Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “Whom shall I send? And who will go for us?” And I said, “Here am I. Send me!”"
Isaiah 6:8 [NIV]

I pray that I may be the wife that I am called to be. I pray that I could be the wife that you have dreamed of over the years. I pray that God guides me as your wife and shows me how to lead you. I pray that I can be your best friend for the rest of your life.

Proverbs 31

I pray for you.

Love,
Your future wife

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
