"Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life." -Proverbs 13:12

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres."
1 Corinthians 13:4-7

I want to introduce someone very special to you, my fellow blog readers...my boyfriend, Jared Fisher. I met Jared this summer while chaperoning at Centrifuge 2009. I thank God daily that I went to FUGE. I never would've met Jared otherwise!

From the moment I met him...I knew that I wanted to get to know him better. I knew he was worth getting to know...worth putting myself out there for.

I asked for his e-mail address on the last day of camp, only hoping that we would keep in contact. I didn't think that I would ever see Jared again to be perfectly honest...but I knew that I wanted too.

So for the next 4 months Jared and I proceeded to send back many numerous e-mails to one another....until it became an every day occurrence....which was what I was hoping it would turn out to become all along. :)

I want to take the time to list just a *few* things that I absolutely love about Jared:

• He loves God with all of his heart!
• He is guarding my heart.
  
• He is loving.
• He is really handsome!
• He is respectful.
• He is leading...
  
• He is family oriented.
• He is a hopeful romantic.
  
• He is very caring.
• He is not self seeking.
  
• He and I are similar.
• His heart speaks in words too.
  
• He sees my heart, and not just the mask.
• He is funny.
• He is smart.
• and He loves me where I am at.

We have been in a relationship now for 9 days. I don't even really know how we made the jump! I told Jared how I felt, and he reciprocated my affections that were held in my heart. Thank God I was able to speak my heart. I do struggle with doing that so...God must have known that Jared was the one that I would finally need to speak up for...because he is truly worthy. Honestly the last 9 days+the last 4 months of talking to him....well they have been the best days of my life so far!

To Jared With Love!
