Two Men

Less than fifty days ‘till my wedding. Putting all things aside with wedding havoc, I decided to take some time to write. There is something so amazing that happens daily in my life now. I fall in love with two wonderful men. First and foremost there is my God, my Lord, and my Savior. Then there is Danny, my fiancé, soon to be husband, and Marine.
A few months ago, Danny and I started reading His Needs Her Needs as a part the pre-marital class (I recommend that book to everyone who plans in marrying one day). As Danny read the first chapter, he shared to me his thoughts on the book. Later on he tells me “Betty, my goal is to win your heart over every day”. Man that made my heart melt! I noticed change soon after. Sometimes in the simplest ways he would try so hard to make me laugh, he would compliment me even more often, he started praying for me everything, so on and so forth. The list goes on. This week he did something out of the ordinary! He being in Georgia made a Starbucks order through phone, paid with his card, and told me to pick up my coffee. His treat to me! Sometimes there have been things I wouldn’t notice, sometimes I would, and all I knew was that somewhere in his heart; Danny wanted to win me over, daily.

Isn’t that what God does every day? He tries to show us knew ways, wants us to see the rather more simple things in life and teaches us how to laugh through the storm. A few months ago I prayed to God to show me how to laugh at the silliest things. I had become bitter, hard, and uninviting. As I made that prayer while driving, immediately God began to work! I saw a Veterinarian Hospital and there was a caricature of a cow standing up waving. Normally, I would make a comment such as “wow, these people are so unprofessional with such sign”, instead I started laughing! Then about ten minutes later down the road I noticed two little birds on my lane and I was scared that for some reason I would run over these birds! Suddenly I hear a little voice saying “Hey meet you at the tree at three!” then another voice says “See you there!”. Talk about amusing! From then on, I was enjoying the little things. God wins my heart over every day.
So here I am, thanking God for placing such a wonderful, amazing, romantic, handsome, and God loving man in my life. Knowing that I will be spending the rest of my life with a man that knows the ways of God is something I’ve always prayed for. I’ve got my God, my Rock, my Savior, and life and boy am I in love!
