Our God writes the most beautiful stories...

... and I'm so very thankful He wrote this man into mine.

Over the past year, I've seen God's goodness and provision and grace displayed so prominently through Matthew. He truly has been a "gift from God" to me. Through him, I've been drawn closer to Christ, become more aware of the beauty of Jesus, and grown to love God's Word even more.

He's the godliest man I know. He loves me tenderly, cares for me sweetly, protects me fiercely, leads me faithfully, prays for me daily, sacrifices for me regularly, and always points me to Jesus.

He's my best friend and dearest love and I am oh, so thankful + blessed + excited to become his wife and journey together through life by his side.

Because I absolutely said "Of course!"

Hey, friends! I have an action step and a prayer r

Hey, friends! I have an action step and a prayer request to share today.

Many of y'all know that I'm a Michigan girl. In eight days, Michigan will come to a pivotal fork in the road called Proposal 3.

Proposal 3 is advertised as as reproductive freedom for all...but there are horrifying realites behind those words.

If passed, Proposal 3 would have devastating consequences for Michigan. It would:

-Remove the requirement for parental consent before an abortion AND parental consent over any medical treatment related to pregnancy, including sterilizations and hormone therapy.
-Remove all late term abortion bans.
-Eliminate the requirement that only a doctor can peforms an abortion and remove all health and safety guidelines for abortion facilities.
-Remove Michigan's current 1931 abortion ban.
-Remove conscience protection for those who don't want to perform abortions.
-Invalidate any and all Michigan laws that contradict Proposal 3.
- Become cemented in the very constitution of Michigan.

In short? It would make Michigan the most radical abortion state in the country.

This radical, extreme, and poorly worded proposal needs to be stopped.

What can you do?

If you're a voter in Michigan, vote NO on Proposal 3 on November 8 and tell your friends, family, neighbors, co-workers... everyone you know, to vote NO as well.

If you're not a Michigan resident or you can't vote yet, please pray that Proposal 3 would not pass and that the unborn children of Michigan would be protected. Tell anyone you know in Michigan about the dangers of Proposal 3 and share this post to get the word out.

I don't usually share political content on my social media, but Proposal 3 is not just a political issue. It's a devastation of basic morality.

Please join me in prayer for God's mercy during this election, not only on Michigan but in every state where such decisions will be made. And join me in taking action by spreading the word and if you can, voting for life.

Great is Thy faithfulness Great is Thy faithfulnes

Great is Thy faithfulness
Great is Thy faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed Thy hand hath provided
Great is Thy faithfulness, Lord, unto me
Pardon for sin and a peace that endureth
Thine own dear presence to cheer and to guide
Strength for today and bright hope for tomorrow
Blessings all mine with 10, 000 beside...

In my last post, I talked about why a desire to be a wife and mother is not "less than", but a beautiful and worthy calling.

But you can't talk about why motherhood has been denigrated in culture without talking about the other side of the coin--the lack of strong, godly, masculine men and how men abdicating their responsibilities as husbands and fathers has impacted our society and generation.
