We started attending a new Bible study recently and we love going together to learn how to be better and stronger for each other and for God.

Morning Devotional
We were up late watching Captain Phillips and overslept the late service at church. So, instead I went and bought you a coffee while you made belgian waffles. Afterwards, we went out on my deck to do a morning devotional together in place of the service we missed.
We read 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 and talked about God’s patience and love for us and how we who are saved are appointed to lead others to Christ. We also talked about how incomprehensible His love is. Love is something that evolves over time. Forgiveness is hard. Forgiveness doesn’t mean forgetting. God is infinitely patient with us even though He knows we are doing wrong. However, He also knows the ending.
It was a beautiful morning and a great conversation. I love my girl and I love my God!

Adventure in Buffalo
We’re truly a blessed couple. On Easter Sunday, an absolutely perfect day for driving, we decided to just pick a direction and start doing just that, driving.
We drove to Niagara Falls and walked around for a while. You hadn’t been there in years. We grabbed dinner at Friday’s and then drove down to The Waiting Room in downtown Buffalo where we got into a random concert and bar for 1/2 price. Then we ended up with a free hotel room for the night and the next morning we checked out 15 minutes before a free tour of City Hall was taking place without even knowing it.
We toured the Buffalo Zoo on that gorgeous spring day and got free parking at a lot nearby the restaurant we wanted to eat at because the guy felt like being nice. We even got a jolly old tollbooth operator on the way home.
God is so good to us both and it’s so amazing to see Him actively amidst our relationship. We spent a lot of time together this weekend and I love you more now than I did before.

Easter Sunday
We went to the 11:30am service together on Easter to celebrate the life of Christ and honor Him on this special day. It was a beautiful time of worship and reflection combined with an outstanding message of salvation delivered by senior pastor Pierre DuPlessis. Of course none of this happened before you got your coffee and snuck it into the main auditorium. Again.

Jeremiah 29:11-13
For I know the plans I have for you,” says the Lord. “ They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope. In those days when you pray, I will listen. If you look for me wholeheartedly, you will find me.

In the Beginning…
I asked you to be my girlfriend tonight. You said “yes”.
