Open Letter to Mr. Right

I guess I should start this one off by saying Happy Valentine's Day!  Although many singles find this day somewhat depressing, I have to admit, it's been a pretty amazing day for me.  God showed up big time this morning during my devotional - just to remind me that He is the ultimate valentine (and since you're a huge fan of His, I know you won't be jealous if I say that ; ).

I guess what struck me most was  Psalm 139.  That's one of my favorite scripture passages.  I almost committed it to memory last summer, but stopped a few verses short.  I should pick that up again.  Anyways, it reminded me that God knows every single little detail about me. The number of hairs on my head.  The sort of mistakes I will make before I make them.  Every word that I say.  Every thought that I think.  EVERYTHING!  Yep, more than you, Sweet Pea.  AND HE STILL LOVES ME.  Crazy, huh?  (Now is the time where you say- "No, He's not crazy- how could someone not love you?"  Bahahaha- just kidding.  Sometimes I just crack myself up).

I'm just so pumped these past few days because what God spoke to me about in my devotional (here) a few weeks ago has come to pass.  I have a new heart that is embracing God in a way I've never known before.

It's neat to think (on this day that everybody is celebrating love) what you're doing.  Maybe you're like me and kept it low key.  A good lunch with friends.  A walk through the art museum.  Leftovers for dinner.  And blogging/music jam session at night.  I kinda doubt it though.  You know that old saying, "Opposites attract."  I have a feeling that you'll be much more outgoing and spontaneous than I am, which is good because then we would balance out.

I am the more serious and focused one and you're the one that everyone loves- lol.

Well, I think I've rambled on enough now.  Happy Valentine's Day, love.

Praying for you and thinking of you until we meet,

Chels.

oops...one more thing.

I saw this note when I opened the coffee cabinet and had to snap a picture.  I love my parent's love.  They make each other so happy.  I hope one day I will find someone like my Daddy, who leaves me sweet notes and never fails to remind me how much he loves me.  But unlike my mom jokingly said the other day- he will never be replaced : )
