Pursue Peace

When I decided to date again after my divorce I may not have been sure about much, but I was certain about one thing. And that was that I did not want to spend any more of my living years arguing with someone over petty things.

The lessons I learned from my past were tough things to be taught and none of it was easy.

Here I was with a clean slate and another chance to love someone again and I sure wanted to do it right this time.

Maybe you can relate?

Because to love and be loved is a gift. And sometimes we miss that and then we go through some hard days.

When I started to date and get to know my favorite farm guy, I just wanted to love him really well. My history of being the keeper of someone else’s heart was not perfect yet somehow God was giving me another chance. And I’m so so grateful He has.

Here we are almost five married years in and our hearts are beating strong, because being right is not our goal, love is.
