Did you hear that?
Better question: Did you feel that?
What does it sound like when you sing heaven's song?
What does it feel like when heaven comes down?
What does it look like when God is all around?
Let it come...
(Brian and Jenn Johnson worship song)
Because its Time!

Did you hear that?
It's all around now.
Did you feel that supernatural shift in this season?
God is bringing people together in this time for a special plan and purpose. We all don't know why exactly..or how it's going to come about..But all we know is that we are yearning for something more..a different kind of life..a different kind of perspective; a shift in understanding.

There is so much to be thankful for! Justin and I are so blessed!! We are blessed to have each other, and to have so many lovely people surrounding us. J and I have an awesome support group of people! More than we could have ever asked for. God is calling us to so much more than what we can even comprehend right now. It's this amazing unveiling of people, ministry and gifts. We are SO EXCITED to see what God is doing in us and what He has planned for us!
God is merging us with other married couples that are on the same 'spiritual page' and we are meeting, having dinner, and praying about what God wants us to do about it!!
But it's also so much more than that!
When J and I got married God, somehow, connected us even more than ever before. We already thought we were close before, but then we got closer. Such a cool, cool thing. I personally could actually feel God entwining our hearts together. It started the day we got married actually and it's this continual understanding and longing that happens every day for me. I always want my husband with me. I always want to talk to him, text him, look at him (I am convinced he gets better looking every day:)), and I want him to be sitting by me, even if we are not talking. When he leaves for work I get sad but then I remind myself of how I will be able to reunite with him later when he comes home. I long for intimacy with my husband- that's the way God intended it to be.
I firmly believe that God uses being married as an example of how He feels about us. (This is true in my case.)
God spoke to me about Justin long before we were married and said, "Remember when I told you that your future Husband would love you like Christ loves the church? That's how Justin loves you- Unconditionally and without obligation or regret."
This is the way God intends marriage to be like: an experience of HIM and how HE feels about you as the bride of Christ!

What an amazing journey this has been so far and it has only been 3 weeks today!! :)
If I knew being married would be this much fun I would have gotten married a long time ago!
Living together is awesome. Merging your stuff into a small space is not so awesome, but doable! Waking up together, having coffee on the porch and reading together are just some of the many things that are so fun about always being together.
We are Best Friends. Lovers. Husband and Wife... and we are on an incredible journey together.
