With all the talk of enjoying the single life, it's easy for me to forget to articulate what it is that I feel ultimately called to. I forget to ask my friends to pray for it. I get caught up in how I feel now and what I'm doing now that I forget the glorious anticipation of this beautiful thing, and look at my hope in light of my present circumstances, which leaves a bitter taste in my mouth sometimes.
So I'm practicing being vulnerable and honest, lest I keep forgetting. Just in case I've mislead you while trying to muster a false sense of satisfaction...
_I want to get married.
_I want to have lots of children.
There it is, plain and simple.

Dear Luz--
I laughed a bit when I saw this post because I thought you were kidding... You weren't kidding ~;0) I am glad you were inspired. I'm praying for you (and Bonnie and me as well :0)
Love,
