So what's with this blog?

Hello friends! :)

So yes that's right, Gabby has yet another blog, but this time it's different. This blog is something that me and my wonderful man, Noah, decided we were going to do together. :) Actually, it was an idea that I came up with last week, and he lovingly supported me and told me he would love to help me with it. :P :) But anyways this is a project we are doing together which I think is going to turn out awesome!

So what is it?

Well, this blog is both a documentation of the journey of our beautiful relationship and a way for us to share the things God has taught us, and will continue to teach us along the way. We look at it as kind of a ministry opportunity, sharing lessons with whoever may benefit from them. Let me give you a little background on why I came up with this idea.

Why blogging?


One of my favorite things to do is to talk to myself. I like to think out loud, and it usually ends up in me praying, so it can be a really neat devotional practice.  So anyways I like to think about just what is going on in my life and what God is doing in my life, and so about 2 years ago I decided I wanted to share some of my late night ramblings, so I created a blog. :) Fast forward to now, a lot of my late night rambling lately have been about my relationship with Noah, obviously, because that is one of the most important things going on in my life. :) I've been thinking about just how blessed me and Noah have been throughout the journey of our relationship and I've also been thinking about how much we've grown. Our relationship has been full of high points, and some lows too, but through all of it, God has taught us a lot! I can honestly say that over the last 10 months, I have grown more than at any other point in my life and I know Noah has grown so much too. So I really want to share all these things that we have been learning.

Why sharing these lessons?


Why do I want to share these relationship lessons? Well I feel like it is a stepping towards a ministry that me and Noah want to be involved with in the future. We both have a heart for working with young girls, and I want to work with them specifically when it comes to dealing with relationships and sexual sins, an area that I feel like has a lot of needs. From my perspective, this kind of ministry is really needed and I want to step up and have that kind of ministry in a church someday. In this blog, I will definitely touch on some issues that might be affecting some young girls, or even young women my age, because I want to share my knowledge with them. Not only do I want to reach out to young girls, I want to go a little beyond my ministry and just share things with young women who are in my situation, being young and in a serious relationship that's heading towards marriage. When you're young, wisdom from someone who knows where you are in life, can be helpful and encouraging, and that's what I want to be.

So me and Noah will be working together on posts on this blog. I think I will be the primary poster, but when Noah has things to share, he will certainly come on and post as well, I hope. :) I think it's great for girls to hear something from a godly man's perspective, also a relationship takes two, so I just couldn't do this blog without him. :) Besides, he has some amazingly good insight. :) He's really the thinker in this relationship. Anyways well I hope that you, reader, will find something of value as you following along on our journey!

Ta ta for now!

Gabby :)
