Learning to dream

recently got engaged. My fiancé proposed to me in a way I couldn't imagine, in the presence of all my friends and family - superseded all the expectations I had built up in my head. 

It was then that I remembered God's promises for us. Just a few months before the proposal, our relationship of years was taking a horrible turn. All the odds were stacked against us. We came to this horrible place of giving up. But in our moments of weakness we cried out to God. We believed in God's promise over our lives. We knew that when the pursuit of our dreams was seeming impossible we were in good hands. The hands of God.

“We were under great pressure, far beyond our ability to endure, so that we despaired of life itself. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead.”
2 Corinthians 1:8-9 NIV
