Here is an update letting my friends and family know what what;s going on in the blissful world of Lindsay Brown. I say blissful because it's a word I would like to see used in reference to God more. Bliss means perfect happiness or great joy, and the only reason for this perfect happiness and great joy in my life is because of the beautiful, powerful and loving hand of God holding my life. I picture each of our lives cupped in God's hands, and nestled close to His beating heart. It's a place of rest, listening to the Father's heart beat!
Currently, today was one of the best Saturday Sabbaths I have had! I've got to tell you, the sabbath day is ALWAYS a joy to me, because it's permission to rest however I want for a whole day! I am so SO thankful to partake in the Sabbath day, but this one was especially sweet and here is why...
The day started, woken up by the sunlight next to my best friend Ryan. I have never seen such beautiful and loving eyes... and to know that they see me as beautiful, lovely and blessed... it was bliss.
Then I got the honor eating breakfast with some of the most amazing people I know at the Kerr's house!! Here are a few things I admire about this family.
1. Sandra is the nicest most loving women I know. She praises her children for becoming women who can cook and provide for their families! What amazing priority she has, and I just admire the way she handles her children and grandchildren. I can imagine them waking up and calling her blessed!
2. Then Gui is such an honest and humble man, full of quiet strength and great love. He honors his wife so well. The impact this couple has had on my life is so awesome... I sure hope her warmth, hospitality, and kindness rub off on me, so I can be that same way with my family!
Oh, I forgot to tell you, the breakfast was like a Turkish feast!!!!!! It was so yummy and the coffee was amazing!! Delightful. Bliss.
The rest of the day was really good too... I could elaborate on every savory detail, but I dont want make this too too long! So, to sum it up, went to the beach and paddle boarded and relaxed. Got sushi and then I think the highlight was waking up from my 2.5 hour nap to chat with Ry for an 1.5.
I've got to talk about him for just a minute. I need to give respect where respect is due. :) This man asked me to marry him one week ago today, and it was definitely the best day of my life. (will post that story later!!) We started dating in the summer, and it's been a huge learning process! One that I wouldn't trade for all the riches in the world, and getting to know this man gets better everyday! I feel more loved every time he shares his heart or thoughts about me. I love his heart to serve Jesus by bringing revival and heaven on earth!! Bliss!! I say to myself, " I am so thankful to be with a man who wants to serve Jesus... I bet if we lived next to the church, he'd be a happy camper!" Really, if there was a few words I could describe him as, I would definitely say he is passionate! Passionate is everything! Everything he does and says is fueled by passion... in all areas of his life. If he has no passion for something, you'll know! :) He's bold and courageous. Not really afraid of anything. Pretty good at everything he tries! I respect him because he knows the truth and aligns himself with that! He respects the Lord in me. He's friendly and loving... not really interested in things leading to death. He is amazing at loving me. Giving me kind words! Lot's of kisses! Fun exciting adventures, his time and attention. Bliss. Bliss from God! There is so much more to say, because i have yet to even touch upon some of our adventures or discussions, dreams ect. But I have to say I am so thankful and excited to spend the the rest of life getting to grow with this man. yes!!!
