2007 (7 = number of completion) is over, and 2008 (8 = number of new beginnings) is here.
That's so true, isn't it? Last year I finally gave in to God's will and let Vince pursue a relationship with me, which eventually led to our engagement. That was the completion of step one in our lives together... committing to love each other for the rest of our lives, and starting the day we get married, we will spend the rest of our lives together.
This year, Vince and I will be married. We will officially begin a new family.
On the subject of marriage, it really amazes me how God works in two people's lives to bring them together to form a new family. Ever since Vince asked me to marry him, and I accepted, we began our life-long commitment there. The wedding ceremony and the vows are not where that commitment starts. We've grown so close and so like-minded on everything, it's becoming more of a need than just a desire to be together.
Vince and I aren't the only ones who got engaged last year and will be married this year. I know of at least 2 other couples who are doing the same thing.
