Hello dear friends.
I am back, and a very happy new year to you.
I do hope that you had a beautiful Christmas and a really lovely happy new year.
Things I've done this year, and things I am looking forward to.
After a whirl wind of a romance, I am finding myself getting married in very soon, less than a month away.
Andrei came down from Wellington, during Christmas, and New year spending my birthday with me.
I just love my man so much, he's so sweet and gentle and loving, oh so loving.
Wanting nothing in return, that's pure love.
We both had 14 wonderful days together, over which I contracted, Glandular fever, but on the mend now.
We supported, cafes a few times, we went to different ones, this is new to me, not to new to Andrei he love his cafes. but I this was a past time I really enjoyed.
To rekindle the romance again, with my Andrei, and acutaly yes be told to relax and enjoy the moment, not to go off and onto the next thing to do.
To slow down is one of my things I simply find hard to do, Andrei calls me his little race horse, just because well I've bolted and everyone keep up.
Having the fever is, someone relaxing as well, I'm saving money.
but I think I can get out and get my lipstick, and fragrance, soon for the wedding.
I am very much looking forward to marrying Andrei and being his new wife.
One of the books that have helped me, while being sick is a book called.
Created To Be His Help Meet.
It is a truly wonderful and insightful book to read, for those people going to be married or have been married for a long time.
I strong recommend the book, and taking notes.
And about being submitting, and not fighting or conflict. now doing it in a Godly way, and learning how to make an appeals, to your husband, and keeping that romance alive.
It all comes down to comunication, and I burn with shame sometimes the way I have treated my Andrei, not the Godly house wife way. but because I simply pushed him into things.
I think back on my horse riding, days, not comparing Andrei to Wilson, or Chontelle, but with working with horses, you have to ask gently, not by forcing your way in.
With Jesus it's like that to, have you prayed today? have you trusted him with your day?
Have you given him the first fruits of the day?
When we serve Christ, we serve our husbands, with everything we have.
I love Andrei, from the moment we met, I fell in love with him, 1st over the phone, and then he came down, and I simply couldn't let go of this Pino.
he's so slight, and muscles, and beautiful with his love, even when I was hash, and I was, I was really hard on him at some points. However I hadn't yeilded to Christ, and I was just blasting off, and it didn't end up well.
But Andrei took me back and my appologies, and loved me so much.
I miss him stroking me, and every day we send what's app messages, to each other, it was in email form, but now with a smart phone, I can send him little encouraging messages, during the day.
And our men need to that encouragement, now and they need to know that us girls need our men.
How has this book changed me personally?
It has made me more subtle to yeild to the glory of God, and then Andrei.
I'm not saying that Andrei is always right, or I'm always right.
But for a girl that really didn't like conflict, because of the fear of the past, and how to approach things.
I actually had to get psychology help on this. Because I acutally had a fear of how to brings things up.
However this book, has helped me with everything in my life, and how to be a Godly wife to Andrei.
May I challange you to read the book, you don't have to agree to everything in the book, but just read it.
Then read Praying for your future husband, and see where that journey takes you.
The Lord took me on a journey to his heart, and in that has blessed me with the most amazing man in Andrei.
Couples that start to pray early in the relationship stay together.
While it is new for me to love Andrei, and to be on this journey with him, it is important to always keep Christ as the center.
And not always Andrei.
And Andrei will most likely say the same, he is always pointing me to Christ, and out of that, comes this beautiful loving relationship.
that is flowering in God's garden.
It is beautiful, that Jesus knew that I wanted to get married, I was happy to be single, I was, but I also prayed for my future Husbands heart.
Mum and Dad have been praying since I was 3 for a husband, so I could count on their prayers.
I didn't want to throw myself at anyone, who could injure or damange me.
I just wanted a man, who let others to the lord, knows about disabilities, and will always treat me well and right.
I was vunerable to the lord with my heart.
and the lord made me grow.
So he brought me Andrei who leads bible study after sunday morning church, has a disabilty himself, and with how he treats his mother I could trust him with my heart.
It's not an easy road for either of us, but it is a blessed road.
And when Jesus is at the center of everything, things fall into place.
I've just got to finalize numbers, and get the food ideas into the polytechnic. who are doing the catering for the wedding.
We are getting married at the school I work at, I'm going back to work for a week leading up to the marriage. I've already resigned.
And that too, has been an amazing journey, in it's self serving the 130 boys their morning tea and afternoon teas.
And the teachers get morning tea as well.
I've worked with some pretty cool people at the school.
Well my lovelies, if you have time to read over this summer, or winter break no matter where you are in the world.
Read those 2 books.
Lots of love
Chloe
