my anthem at the moment.

so faithful, so constant
so loving and so true
so powerful in all You do
You fill me, You see me
You know my every move
You love for me to sing to You

i know that You are for me
i know that You are for me
i know that You will never forsake me in my weakness
i know that You have come down
even if to write upon my heart
to remind me who You are

so patient, so gracious
so merciful and true

so wonderful in all you do
You fill me, You see me
You know my every move
You love for me to sing to You

i know that You are for me
i know that You are for me
i know that You will never forsake me in my weakness
i know that You have come down
even if to write upon my heart
to remind me who You are

"You are for me" by kari jobe.

been a long time. here's some thoughts.

wow. it's been a great and lovely summer. obviously i haven't posted something the entire summer long, but in a nutshell, it might be the best summer of college so far. well, i guess i should say it has probably been my most adventurous. gotta love getting out of a rut and actually experiencing new things. whoohoo!

there is a point to this post. i've been pondering the idea of love and marriage lately. if you know me at all, you're probably thinking "lately?" haha, but no really, i've been thinking about it with a level head. i was asked recently if i believe there is just one person i am supposed to spend the rest of my life with. i felt like that was a loaded question. well, more thought provoking than loaded, but still a doozy.

my thoughts: so far, in my 22 years of life, i have been "unlucky" in love. i enjoyed my past relationships, and i know that i have learned SO much about: men, relationships, what i deserve and what i am looking for, myself, etc etc. do i believe that there is just one man that is out there that i have yet to meet, that will just sweep me off my feet and we will live happily ever after? no. do i believe that God has ordained a man and set him aside for me to marry? yes, i do. have i already met him? who knows! wouldn't that be a trip! hah.

i also get to thinking, will i know, just have a "feeling", like 'love at first sight'? do i even believe in 'love at first sight'? so many questions, and zero answers. i am in the place where i am ready to have questions answered. is that too much to ask? ;)

i'm excited to start my 5th year of college. last semester of classes kicks off in 7 days. whoohoo! bring it on! excited for what this school year has to offer.

"You are great, and Your name is to be praised!"
