4 Things I Am Looking For In A Husband
Intergratedcatholiclife.org

I don't have any idea what my husband will look like, and I don't pray that he will be tall, dark and handsome. I have four requests, and I pray that God will fulfill them in my future husband.

1. A strong relationship with God.

I don’t want my husband to not know God. It is so very important to me that God be in my life, and the man He chooses for me. I want us to be at church on Sunday’s, and it be a priority. I want him involved in the church, and enjoys every minute he spends there. When we fight, which we will, I want him to pray about it and come back ready to fix things because I’ll be praying about it too. I want us to always ask each other for forgiveness when we do something wrong.

2. Always a gentleman.

I am talking about good ol’ southern charm. I want my man to open and close the car door for me. I want him to put his hand on my knee instead of my thigh. I want him to grab my hand instead of my bottom. I want him to kiss my cheek instead of it always being my lips. A man who is always there to help me carry all the groceries in on the first trip. A man that will run around the car with the umbrella so I don’t get wet in the rain.

3. A giving heart.

I want a man that is willing to give his heart to me, and everyone else. A man who is willing to give his time, for whatever reason. A man that can work with kids and actually enjoy it because every child can use some extra love. Someone who is willing to give his free time to others. A man who does not have a problem canceling his plans to come help someone. A man willing to give up his Saturday of rest to help me work on making our home beautiful, whether it be planting flowers in the front yard or cleaning out the basement.

4. That you pray for me.

Pray for me everyday. I will be praying for you. I won’t pray that you become a different person, I’ll pray about your day and your family. I will pray for your troubles and praise God for the great things that happen to you.

I promise you, future husband, that I will do my best everyday to be the woman of your dreams. I come with flaws, but so will you. I promise you that I will make you laugh at least once a day, whether it be with terrible jokes or sarcastic comments. I promise to you that I will never stop trying to make you happy. I may not know you yet, but when we meet I will know that you’re my person.

Proverbs 31:10-12 King James Version (KJV):

"Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies. The heart of her husband doth safely trust in her, so that he shall have no need of spoil. She will do him good and not evil all the days of her life."

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
