Well I feel like we have a lot of things that we should be updating with yet i'm not quite sure where to start. I put this picture in the post first to celebrate our one month annivesary (yippy!) but also because I think that look on my face just shows the way I feel about life since James and I got married. I feel like such a lucky woman to have been brought together with such a wonderful man who puts up with my shortcomings and STILL even after those buys me roses for our one month anniversary! For those of you still waiting on pictures from the wedding, we are in the process of trying to upload them on our computer except the computer doesn't want to take them so hopefully we will figure something out soon!
Something great that happened to us this weekend as well is that we were both baptised at our church on Sunday. It was what they called a spontaneous baptism where our pastor talked about the meaning of baptism and how it is one of the first things that you should do after you give your life to God. While I was listening I sat in my chair thinking about everything that was being said and the priorities in my life that had changed lately and how wonderful it has been to truly feel like God is the center of my life. When he was done preeching a song played and he counted to three and told you to stand up if you felt moved to do so and sure enough before I knew it both James and I were on our make to one of the most wonderful and meaningful experiences we will ever have. When I woke up this morning I heard this song on the radio that I really feel like I was able to relate to so I thought I would put a bit of it on here.
I Know You Now by 4Him
"Finally I'm understanding
Just who You are
I feel my life is landing
Safe inside Your arms where I belong
But, I know You now
I know You now
I know You're in my heart
Yes, I know You now
Beyond the shadow of a doubt
I know You now
In my heart
In my soul
In my life
Now I know
I know You now"
And ya know what I have to say that one of the most amazing things was when I went through that pool on Sunday? Not only did I feel an amazing sense of pride and excitment and love from my wonderful husband and friends who were there to witness it, but the first person who I hear cheering for me and whose smile I saw was the woman who made me realize how important it is to have God in your life, my good ole Aunt Cheryl who I know was smiling down on me at that moment!
