THE LIST!
|
Ok so I dunno if I've mentioned this previously, but please let me explain what me and Ashley call "OUR LISTS"
A few months ago, Ashley was talking to one of the youth pastor's wives about dating and marriage. Somewhere in the conversation is was suggested to Ashley that she start a LIST. On this list she was to write every single thing she wants in her husband.
The reasoning: God gave you those desires to have in a mate. That way when you meet someone and you think that that person might be "The One", compare him/her to The List. If the person lacks one thing, then you know that he/she is not the one God has in mind for you. The Key idea is to not keep any one person in mind. (ex: Don't base your list on you current crush cause yeah, that would be dumb...)
So basically she told me about this idea and we both sat down and started our LISTS. I started this list back in October and I believe for now it is finished.
