You know every girl(and some guys) has this list of what she wants in a significant other. She has this dream/picture of what he like and how things will be in her future. Well, guess what!! My reality with Tim is far, far better than I have EVER dreamed possible! It seriously is! I am head over heels for this man of God! He is truly one of the biggest blessings I have ever had!
In past relationships, I was trying to make the guys fit into what I wanted, but with Tim..he just fits perfectly. God's plans are so much better than mine and that is proven time and time again in my life. I thought I had this "perfect guy" in my mind, but God placed Tim in my life and blew me away. I underestimated and was cheating myself out thinking the guy in my mind was as good as it was going to get. God showed me otherwise. Praise the Lord! :)
Would you like to hear about mine and Tim's little fairytale? :) I love telling it, so I will share it with you! We met in March 2010 at FBC Abbeville's Disciple Now. One of my best friends, Morgan, went to Honduras with the youth pastor of FBC Abbeville and Tim. The youth pastor, Ryan, asked Morgan to be a leader for the D-Now weekend and then asked her to find another girl to help as well. Morgan asked me to help and I was all for it! It was that weekend that I met Tim and I thought he was awesome! He had already added me on Facebook before that weekend and I think we had maybe talked on chat, too. We were able to talk some and shared our testimonies on the way to a Rush of Fools concert in Dothan. I was able to learn more about him and the amazing person he is. But at that time, I was dating someone else and he was liking another girl. So, nothing happened between us at this time, but we kept in touch with each other. In October is when we both ended our relationships with other people, not knowing what God had in store for us. In November, we started talking more and getting to know each other better. It was then on November 16th when I randomly asked Tim to join me in a 30 day blogging challenge. He agreed and we blogged almost everyday the month before I left for China. During that time, we were talking everyday and learning more and more about each other. I left for China on December 17th and came back in January. When I came back home we started talking just about everyday again. We had exchanged phone numbers and started communicating through texts. I went home one weekend with Morgan at the end of January and he came over to her house and hung out with us. At this point, I still had no idea that he liked me and he did not know that I had feelings for him as well. That next week on February 6th, Tim told me his intentions about our friendship and where he was planning on it going. He told me that he felt like I possessed the qualities he wanted in a wife and he wanted to date me and hopefully eventually marry me. I flipped my lid!! No joke! I had been praying about it all and never thought he would actually be interested in me, too. I was blown away by his boldness and being a man about it all and initiating things between us because hardly any guys do that nowadays. Ever since then God has blown my mind through this amazing man of God! Things between us couldn't be better! It may seem like a short period of time to have fallen so hard for a guy, but when you meet the right one and know you have a future and lifetime with him..you just can't help yourself. :)
So, this is just the beginning of my real life fairytale with Tim Mathis. I could not be happier with the one God has blessed me with!
