Love At First Sight

I have never been in love.
And I cannot honestly say that I do or do not believe in love at first sight.

Except with my sweet little Missy,
I knew she was my puppy the moment I saw her,
but she is a dog and so she doesn't count!

Some people claim that it isn't love at first sight but lust.
I believe that it is a little of both sometimes.

Our generation is overstimulated and sexualized.
It is so sad to see the beauty of relationships and intimacy degraded.
I hope and pray that God protects my heart and my future husbands heart
from the destructive path lust at first sight can bring.

After watching the Bachelor this season,
(yes it is a cheesy and reality show but I think it helps teach people about relationships)
I was intrigued by the girl the Bachelor chose to propose to at the end.
The Bachelor wanted to hurry up and get married,
but the girl said that they still needed time to get to know each other,
how they communicate, fight and deal with everyday life.

I wish more people had the sense to take relationships slow.
The rate of divorce in this country is truly a tragedy
and I pray that I never have to experience the pain and disappointment of a failed marriage.

Love is such a confusing topic,
but I am confidant in one relationship
and that is with my Holy Father.
I know He will love me no matter what I do or how bad I treat Him.

One of my favorite praise songs is "I Will Not Forget You",
after you read the lyrics,
you will know why!

Many men will drink the rain
And turn to thank the clouds
Many men will hear You speak
But they will never turn around

I will not forget You are my God, my King
And with a thankful heart I bring my offering
And my sacrifice is not what You can give
But what I alone can give to you

A grateful heart I give, A thankful prayer I pray,
A wild dance I dance before you
A loud song I sing, A huge bell I ring,
A life of praise I live before You

Many men will pour their gold
And serve a thing that shines
Many men will read your words
But they will never change their minds

Maybe one day my Prince Charming will come along
and change my mind about love at first sight,
but for now...
I think I'm gonna stick with my girl Carrie Underwood on this one and say

The more boys I meet the more I love my dog!
