Beginnings

For this first post, I wanted to take some time to introduce my blog and its (intended) purpose.

(Disclaimer): I will admit that this is my first ever attempt at blogging, so please understand if I have trouble making regular posts or something, because I'm doing my best.

I am a relationship person. I love meeting people, hearing their stories, and building relationships. In fact, I love love! I love talking with married friends about how they met and fell in love, I love talking about and (hypothetically) planning my future wedding. I even love thinking about my future husband.

But one thing I have learned time and time again is that in the big picture, my thoughts about love don't even matter... (a shocking revelation for most of us, I'm sure)

What really matters is what God has to say about love. I have a dear friend who shared one of the best explanations of relationships that I have ever heard. He said that we all have letters written on our hearts, like important messages from God. God brings someone into our lives, and He decides when it's our turn to read that person's message, or when our message needs to be read. If you think about it, that is a perfect explanation for why some relationships blossom and grow to be lifelong, and why it seems that some relationships only work for a season.

I want to use this blog as a means of talking about love. About friendships, romantic relationships, love from family, and (most importantly) God's love for us, and how He is constantly working on our hearts, in and through us on our relationships. And I would love input and commentary from my (eventual) followers.

A quote until next time: "If your heart is open, love will always find its way in." - Jane Seymour
