The Unexpected Story

To the Girl Waiting for Love

My Story isn’t going to end the way you’d expect it to…

You’d expect that it would end with me being swept away into the sunset by the man of my dreams and getting my happily ever after…
But no.
That won't be the ultimate end of My Story.
My Story is so much better!

My Story starts before the beginning. Before the beginning of time, that is.
Because before time there was One.
One God.
One Creator.
One marvelous being who spoke the earth into existence.
But before he spoke, he thought of my name.
He knew exactly what his plans would be for me.
This is why My Story starts before the beginning.

As I was growing up, all I dreamed about was being in love.
Just to have that closeness with someone who would do anything for me…
Even die for me.
But I got sick of waiting for my life to start and my dreams to come true, so I tried to make it happen myself.
I looked for love from so many different people.
I even thought I had found it a few times.
Until one day I realized that it had been so long since anyone had looked me in the eyes, said “I Love You”, and meant it…
Or “You Are Beautiful”, without any ulterior motives.
These are the kinds of things a girl needs to hear. Not just the words, but the truth behind them as well.

But these words are written down for me so many times!
“I have loved you with an everlasting love” and “you were created in my image… I formed you”.
When this One speaks to my heart, His words are true from eternity past and on into forever.
Written down for many years, but still new everyday.

This is why He is all I need.
This is why He will always be there.
And He is the reason I am alive!

I am no longer waiting for my life to start.
And though it may come, I am no longer impatiently waiting for that love I have so long sought after.
I already have Jesus.
And He is all I need.

HE is the reason why My Story is so much better.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
