sparkly wonders that we miss...

Recently, I have been feeling the want to be pursued. Of course, it is only amplified by this beautiful fall weather. So many times, either when talking with my girlfriends or just marinating by myself, I have said...I want a boyfriend! Like every girl on this earth, I want to be loved romantically! However, by searching for a earthly love, I put on hold the only everlasting love relationship that I will ever have...with the Lord. It hit me that all along, I was being romanticized. 
How many times a day do we pass God up? How many times do we forget that everything that we delight in was put there by the Lord? It is weird to think that God uses those beautiful moments to romance us. I mean HELLOO, have you ever thought about it? He does not give us just roses that will die or chocolates that will be eaten in the next 2 days (although boys those are nice...). He gives us the moments that delight our hearts and help us to love life! Girls, we have the most romantic Being alive trying to win our love! How glorious is that? 
My love moments:
*giggling with my friends
*the quietness of nighttime underneath a plethora of stars
*hot green tea in front of an old movie
*scarves, vests, and fuzzy socks on a cold day
*a day at Barnes N' Noble reading
* peppermint hot cocoa with the colorful fall leaves gently drifting down
....see?? God is love.

So through this epiphany, I guess I can finally say that I am totally and completely satisfied with being single. This is my period of singleness...or should I say decade...haha!
