It has been awhile since I have posted anything on here and I have had plenty of time to think and ponder about way to many things lately. As most of you know I am getting married this month to the girl of my dreams. God has truly blessed me with a wonderful woman of God. I also have a job that consist of many hours working in solitude. Some may say this is a blessing, some may say it is a curse, I call it both. There are days that consist of pure misery, driving through pastures spraying thistle. Then there are days like today were I get to ride through the cows and look at all the calves grow and see the fruition of all the those long hours during calving season.
These past couple weeks as I approach marriage I have had lots of time to think back on the past 24 years, lets be honest more like the past 8 years. I am proud to say that I have been able to save myself for my wife. It has been the hardest battle I have ever fought but it was a battle worth fighting and a War worth winning. It has not been easy these past 11 months since I became engaged but with encouragement from great friends and a fiance who is also on the same page we were able to work together and honor each other and God.
I believe this has allowed my fiance and I to become closer in so many ways outside of pure physical attraction. I dont know who will read this or if anyone will actually read this but if you are a young man or woman please hold on to your purity until you are married.
In today's sex filled society everyone around you is telling you sex out of wedlock is ok. "Would you buy a car if you havent test drove it?" was a common quote I heard a lot in school and my answer is no but I also wouldn't buy a car with a 300k miles on it and expect it to run like a champ. Every partner comes with emotional baggage that you now have to carry with you your entire life and not only you but your future spouse must carry it too for you.
I am so excited to begin my new life with my beautiful bride and can not wait to share a home with her.
