something else has begun..

well, I am happy to announce that rachel and I are dating. glorious.

yeah, words fail.

four immediate observations:
1. a relationship centered on Christ is totally different than one that isn't. there's a half-dozen things that have intuitively fallen into place that I never even knew were there.
2. God's timing and Promise is infinitely beyond our knowledge and reasoning. it permeates every moment and light of our lives, and it's freaking awesome.
3. humility and eagerness before God are not only powerful (because of His strength in weakness), they are also necessary. speaking of necessities, we also need to let ourselves listen to the Word of God (written and spoken) and stand in the midst of His true Love. we require it in the same way that we require oxygen to breathe.
4. most importantly, when God gives a gift, He doesn't screw around. He not only gives us the desires of our heart abundantly, He does so in such a way that stupifies us.

praise Christ.

we're both eager for what awaits, if a little incredulous. more to come later.
