Ok so last time I talked about the whole online dating stuff right? And I mentioned the hot guy I met last week. We've been talking pretty much everyday since.
We're both struggling with certain things in our life. Mainly being more focused on God's word. He had mentioned a few days ago about us watching a podcast of a message and then discussing it to see how and what it meant to us. So I sort of took that an went with it. But I suggested that we start reading the bible together.
Now sometimes we make commitments like that and never follow through on it. But tonight something totally wicked awesome (yes I said wicked awesome..lol) happened. We did it! We read the entire 3rd chapter of Matthew together over the phone. We discussed different translations of it. We broke it down.
I can't even descrive what I'm feeling now. But I can tell you this, I can't get this grin (or glow as some say) off my face.
Even after all I've seen and experienced, I'm still blown away with the fact that God loves me enough to set up for Justin and I to meet. That He would take time to work through a online dating service so that I could meet one of the greatest guys I've ever met in a looooooooong time.
We're not perfect. We struggle with thoughts...a lot. But we try to work together to "filter" those thoughts. And we understand that its a good thing that we live soooo far apart right now. Because it allows us to grow together in our relationship with Christ. And gives us time to REALLY know each other without having to worry about the whole physical aspect yet.
I'm super excited about what God has planned right now and on down the road. Whether it turns out to be more or we just stay good friends, I'm just going to take everyday and every conversation and enjoy just one of many blessings from God.
God bless.
