It reafirms that I'm on the right track. Courtship really works! In a world of dating, it's amazing how many strange looks (and scores of questions) that people give you when you try to explain just why you're not dating! :-) It's wonderful to be able to log on and see how God is working in your lives and KNOW that, this truly is the way that God has called me and that, someday, I'll be my turn. It renews my commitment to wait for my prince . . .. but meanwhile, to grow closer and closer to my Savior. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

I feel the same way as my friends are courting/in relationships- It is such a hopeful thing to see their happiness, and to dream of my own, perhaps someday...

One dear friend has told me something like "it isn't all easy, happy, lovey-dovey stuff!" and that is good for me to hear. Since I haven't been there yet, it is SO easy to romanticize what it will be like when it comes. It's much better to appreciate the easy points of being single (this leads to more contentment!), meanwhile honing those communication and problem-resolving skills!<br/><br/>Just some thoughts.<br/><3 Gretchen R. Amen.

It's your blog. ;) The giddy posts make me grin. Gretchen probably just gets less comments on those, because there's not much to say in response. ;) lol, sure y’all, post whatever you want to!
