Today I went on yet another terrible first date. I look forward to the date that I actually look forward to. The one that is exciting because it's with a guy whom I've grown to like and he's finally asked me to dinner. The date where I can have my roommates help me pick out a dress and we can try out different lipsticks. I look forward to the date where I can tell him where I live and he picks me up with flowers in hand. I look forward to the butterflies and the nervous twitch. The sweaty palms and repeat bathroom runs "just in case". I look forward to peeking out the blinds and then running upstairs while I roommate let's him in and I pretend to not have been ready for over an hour. I look forward to that prayer I'll say in my heart as I enjoy a first date for once. I look forward to chemistry and chivalry.
I look forward to not having to wait to start the next chapter. But, in the waiting I will be my best self. I will keep trusting God. Keep pursuing God. Keep getting better. For me and for him but mostly for Christ. Because Jesus deserves the best version of myself I can muster.
To the girl who's looking for love like me, don't settle when you're weary. Don't just sit around. Get up. Do life with people. Single friends, married friends all friends. Hang out with them whenever you can and eventually the rest will fall into place. Gods got your back and he's not worried about it. He's confident his plan will work and so am I.
