To My Future Husband...

I am not ready to be married, but I'll still pray for my husband.

I'm not ready to get married anytime soon by no means, but I pray for that one day when I meet that guy God has planned for me and I hope he is a man of faith, kind-hearted, loving, respectful, fun, goofy... and so on, and so forth.

Life isn't perfect and neither is marriage. There will be the bad times and there will be the good. I pray one day that we will come out of those bad times stronger and go through those good times happier than we have ever been.

Things I pray for my future husband:


Slow to anger

We are humans, we are not perfect and I understand that. I know we all get frustrated, it's apart of life.

But I pray that one day when I forget to put gas in the car or when I just do something wrong in general then my husband is understanding. He will not get mad and demanding, but understanding and loving.

Trust

In whatever circumstances, I pray that my husband and I will trust each other. We should also trust in God too and that His plans for us will be the best and will work out the way He wants them to be.

Respect

I feel like in today's world respect is what lacks a lot in relationships. If my husband does not like hearing what I say or a decision I have made then I hope he has enough respect to let me finish the conversation rather than interrupting me. And then giving me his opinion and I will stand there and listen to what he thinks.

Loving

At my worst times and at my best I hope he will always love me for me. For my past, my present and the future. When we have kids, I pray he shows my son how to treat a lady and I hope he shows my daughter how she should be treated by a man.

Man of God

I hope that I marry a man whose foundation is God and his love is for God. He will have his faults, because like I said we all are not perfect. I pray that he makes me a better Christian and we can lean on God in the bad times and the good.

Joyful

We will have our bad days, but I pray that my husband is positive everyday. He will look at the brighter side of things. I just pray that I can make my husband happy enough to bring him joy where he will not have to worry everyday and he can stay positive about most things.

Faithfulness

I pray he is just as crazy about me than I will be with him.

Through the bad times that he will not lose his faith. And the good times we both grow our faith and grow closer to each other.

We all deserve someone in our life. We deserved to be loved and to be happy. Most importantly though we cannot forget that the greatest love comes from God first and that is when we will be truly happy.

“But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.” ~ Galatians 5:22-23 NAS

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?

Happy Birthday Cake

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
