God is great!

Its funny how once you start listening to God, things just start falling into place. He is so good! The past few weeks of Countdown have been really amazing. When we first got engaged, I was so wrapped up in wedding planning; what kind of cake will we have? what kind of flowers? how will my dress look? It was all so exciting, and I didn't even realize that it was the main focus.

Countdown has really helped me refocus. Our wedding is one day, our marriage is forever. Instead of worrying about the perfect day, why don't we worry about how we will face problems when they come up? Instead of focusing on looking like a princess that day, why don't we worry about learning how to turn all of our issues and disagreements to God?

So, in short, I'm over traditional wedding planning. Our wedding is not going to be about us, instead it is going to be about our relationship and love for Christ. I'm ready to be Mrs. Ross, and seeing where God is going to take us. I keep saying this over and over, but I know God has some really amazing plans for us.
