Nothing turns out how we expect—
Sometimes, it turns out better.
Nothing can be better

Stand rooted in the beauty of truth
Be strong in righteous endeavors
Be you, a queen within all of creation.

“As we got closer to marriage, I felt completely confident that Gordon loved me. But I also knew somehow that I would never come first with him. I knew I was going to be second in his life and that the Lord was going to be first. And that was okay.
