Single Again (New Post)
corycopeland:
I’m single…again.
If you’ve been reading this space for long, you’re probably not too shocked by that bit of news. I have, after all, had more than my …

To My Future Husband:
I lay here crying because I already regret the night where I will have to sit there and tell you about the boys I’ve been with. I’ve been working on becoming a woman of God, and He teaches me something new everyday. I pray that you will be like my father. Always understanding, on fire for Christ and turn to God through the hard times we are bound to go through. I pray every day that...
To My Future Wife:
You do not exist for me. It took me a long time to realize that, but finally, my bell has been rung. I am one of those people who will never get married and it makes me sad. I’m sorry.
To My Future Husband:
I can’t wait to wake up next to you every morning. I’ll cook you breakfast while wearing your t-shirt from yesterday. We’ll have pillow fights, watch movies, and drink hot chocolate. We’ll share secrets while we cuddle and fall asleep. And everyday will special simply because I have you.
To My Future Wife:
My love for you will be unconditional. No matter what you’ve done or will do, I’ll love you with all I have.
To My Future Husband:
I’m sorry that I’m not perfect. I’m sorry that I get angry, or grumpy, or forgetful. I’m sorry for when I flip the toilet paper the wrong way, forget to buy milk, or throw away something important. I’m sorry for when I burn dinner, sing off key in the shower, and get a flat tire and ask you to change it for me. I know I’m not perfect. But I will love you with...
To My Future Wife:
Listen to Jeff Buckley’s “Everybody Here Wants You” and you’ll have an inkling of an idea about how badly I want you.
To My Future Husband:
I’m starting to think that all of the “To My Future Wife” posts are made up. I hope your patient demeanor makes up for my impatience.
To My Future Husband:
I am not dating, just waiting.
To My Future Husband:
I have come to a realization that I have a tendency of attracting players. I thought I was the problem so I changed myself and fell in love with Jesus along the way. Come to find out guys are the still the same. I cannot wait for you to rescue me from this sea of confusion. Do not be alarmed if I run away from you. I am just scared is all, but I know that you are not like them. Do not tarry, I am...
To My Future Husband:
I know I’ve probably said this before, but I really do think I’ve found you. Your timing couldn’t have been more off kilter, and I wasn’t ready to have that conversation with you when I did, but it happened and I’m glad it did. I need you to be patient with me while I continue to grow closer to God and develop into a true woman of God. I hope you’ll stick around...
To My Future Husband:
Put on country music, and sexy time.

God is Dead
corycopeland:
“God is dead…and we have killed Him…”
This bit of quote is from Friedrich Nietzsche’s Thus Spoke Zarathustra. When I first read it, I became incensed as my natural inclination to defend my God and my beliefs sprang forth. I found myself wanting to . .

To My Future Husband:
I’m learning how to cook just for you.
So far, I’ve mastered the grilled cheese.
To My Future Wife:
I hope my next and last girlfriend is you. Just know that there are broken pieces of my heart that I know only you can pick up and put back together. I deserve you and I know you’re out there waiting for me too.
To My Future Husband:
Sometimes I worry that I’ll never be in love again. I think the first time I was truly in love was with Travis. I’ve never been with anyone else who I constantly wanted to surround myself with. Every waking moment was spent thinking about him, even after we broke up. To this day, I still think of him so often. When I fell in love with him I thought I was finally done. I felt as though...
To My Future Wife:
I think about you all the time. Literally. The thought of you even calms me down enough to be able to sleep at night. It’s probably “unmanly” of me, but I don’t care. You are beautiful. The problem is I don’t think you know and we are literally an ocean away. Anyway, I miss you.
To My Future Husband:
You don’t need to worry about me being a wife who doesn’t like sex; I’ve waited this long you’re gonna be the one tired of it.
We’ll try crazy new things always. I already have a list of ideas ;)
To My Future Wife:
It’s funny…I’m real good with emotions. I can empathize with others and discuss and deal with those feelings, but, when it comes to my own, I’m hesitant. So here I am barely staying afloat in my flaws and I’m writing a letter to you, to the woman with the biggest and most beautiful heart this side of heaven. What prompted this is *sigh* the females I’ve been involved with. I don’t feel anything...

#You
corycopeland:
The opinion you have of yourself is a choice. So choose to believe that you have worth. Believe that you possess a Holy goodness…because you do.
Love is...
corycopeland:
Love is beautiful…
…when you feel you might burst from the happiness that’s ravaged your bones and electrified your insides, all because you’ve fallen for the one who completes the beat of your heart and filled the emptiness of your hand.
Love is lonely…
…when you’ve fallen for the far off one. Yet …

Single?
corycopeland:
Being single doesn’t diminish your value as a person or as a Christian. Don’t let anyone tell you or make you feel otherwise.

I’ve discovered something about myself during the last few months or so:
I’m emotional.
Yup, it’s official. As a man, I was hoping it was just a seasonal thing like …

Keep the Faith

Sometimes it’s hard to hear “God has a plan” when we’re down, but it’s true. He does have a plan for you and it’s a good one. Keep the faith.
The Big Three (by Jonathan Foster)

When love came to my life I had quit looking for it. Having been through relationship after relationship, I decided I was through looking. If it came, it came. I was traveling with a group of guys in a ministry that was …

Gay Marriage: A Discussion
corycopeland:
With gay marriage such a hot topic these past couple of weeks, I asked my dear friend Brittny if she’d be willing to open up and discuss her views on the subject. Being a Christian member of the gay community, I thought an insight into her thoughts and what she deals with on a daily basis would be …

It Won't Work
I know you understand that I’ve never been religious, and that while I might not share your beliefs, I love you and your devout faith. I love you for understanding that atheists aren’t “bad people.” I love you for loving the true me for me and not forcing me to believe in things that I simply don’t believe in, just as I love the true you for being a servant to the...

Homesick
Sometimes, I feel ready. For you. For us. I feel ready to hold your hand and know that you’re there. To be in love with you. To face things together. To count on you and be counted on by you. To be wrapped in your arms and never want to leave. To be a reason for your smile. To follow your lead.
But then I realize I’m not ready. I’m young. I’m foolish. There are things I...
Good Reasons
Yes, I will probably do most of the cleaning of our house. Only because I’m a clean freak, not because that is my role in the relationship. I know you will also believe in taking the initiative when something needs to be done and not just waiting for the specific person to do the job. This and your humor will be what causes me to fall in love with you.
Forever Ain't Bad
I’m looking forward to the small things in life: waking up beside you, seeing your toothbrush next to mine, digging past your cologne and shaving cream in the medicine cabinet. How bad could forever be if it’s by your side?
Longing for You
I long for you; to be loved by you. All I can say is that it is an extremely tough journey without you, please make an appearance in my life soon.

A Christian's Thoughts on Gay Marriage
corycopeland:
Much has been said about gay marriage over the past week. Anger, resentment, and foul words have been yelled, typed, tweeted, and felt. And right in the middle of all of it has been we Christians. Because of our deep dedication to the Church and …

Grow with Me
I look for you in every boy that I meet. I just miss you so much. I hope that right now you are growing so much more deeper in your faith just like me. I just can’t wait to meet you and talk about everything.
He's on to Something
I have a very different view of beauty now.. I used to think of it as someone with the perfect smile, faultless teeth, someone with an amazing body. But now? I’ve come to realize beauty really does come from the heart, from your soul. You’re the most beautiful person I have ever known and ever will know. That’s why when people ask me about a ‘hot chick’ walking down...
Now!
Hurry the crap up.
Say What You Need to Say
I’ll always say what I mean and mean what I say. You deserve a man who will be honest and forthright with his intentions. That’s me for you.
Worth the Wait?
I trust you to make my waiting worth it :)
Homebody
I’m not a party guy. Heck, I’m not even that keen on going out.
So let’s stay in a lot, yeah?
Call me old-fashioned, but let’s light some candles, put on some slow music, and just dance in our living room.
Let’s snuggle into our bed and just watch our favorite movies all night.
Let’s stay up ‘til sunrise telling each other confessions and secrets that we...

GUYS, are we defining ourselves as real men? Or are we wasting a woman’s time?
“The Real Men” | NEW POST http://wp.me/p1NmD4-iV
To My Future Husband:
Please don’t judge me for my mental illness.
To My Future Husband:
We will never stop going on dates. We’ll never stop acting silly. We’ll never stop playing. We’ll never stop having movie nights, making pallets on the floor and eating popcorn. We’ll never stop telling each other our secrets. We’ll never stop being best friends. We’ll never stop being young and in love.
To My Future Husband:
With every moment we spend together, I am feeling more and more like you are the one. I enjoy spending time with you, and time always flies when we are together. Thank you for being so patient while my heart heals from my past mistakes and hurts with another man. I am so content with where we are at, but I am so excited and hoping and praying that I will spend the rest of my life with...
