Wild@Heart- Don't Be Afraid to Dream Bigger.: My Love for GQ

So who wants to hear about my super awesome boyfriend?

I could go on forever about how blessed I am that God brought Grant into my life after struggling through, and eventually ending, my first attempt at marriage.

But I don't think you understand just how perfect he is for me. Hang with me, this is a long list.

He makes me dinner.
He takes me to the park.
He puts up with all my animals, and he actually takes care of them.
He cleans my house.
He paints with me.
He watches my TV shows and girly movies.
He kisses my forehead when I don't feel good.
He tickles me and wrestles with me until I laugh so hard my stomach hurts.
He takes me on dates.

He brings me closer to God.
He makes me want to be a better person.
He has opened my eyes to what real love in a relationship is.
He has fixed my broken heart.
He filled my life with so much joy.
He saved me.
He's my best friend.

I could go on forever about how well matched we are for each other. It's a once-in-a-lifetime love. We have a connection that most people never get to experience. It's better than anything I've ever seen on TV or read about in a romance novel. I used to look at other people's relationships and marriages and think "Wow, I wonder what it feels like to be that happy with someone". But now, I feel like we are that couple. We are a couple that is so incredibly in love, that you can't help but smile when you see us. It's that good.

I believe God brings specific people together. He has a person in mind that was made especially for you. To complete you. To be a partner that is so well suited for you, that you can [almost] flawlessly meld your lives together forever. Someone that was destined to love you like "Christ loved the church". To be so passionate for you, and to show you the love of God through their love for you. We aren't meant to go through life alone.

I found my forever. God placed Grant in my life at the perfect time. I messed up God's original plan for my life, but he so graciously gave me a second chance, and slowly drew me back onto the path I was originally supposed to be walking down. He gave me Grant to lead me in the right direction. He used Grant to bring me through the worst storm of my life. And he gifted Grant to me to be a blessing for the rest of my life.

God's gracious. He wants to make you happy. He wants you to choose life. And all of the things that God does in your life is for a reason. Believe it. Trust God. Because it'll be worth it in the end.
