Looks like he's gonna be a keeper :)
So we've got a bit of a story here... I can give you the short and sweet version.
Once upon a time there was a girl who was REALLY determined to go on a mission. She even left her boyfriend of 8 months back in Hawaii with a lock on her heart and a promise to wait until she returned for their beautiful fairy tale wedding. One day this girl decided to stop being so stinkin' set in her ways and got on her knees to pray and find out what God would have her do.... Well, the most beautiful and sweet spirit of peace and affirmation filled my heart. Tears came to my eyes and I knew this would be a great decision. Now telling this to Fernando was the really hard part... NOT. He was ecstatic to hear that I would not be leaving him for a period of 18 months and that instead we would be married in the house of the Lord. Yay!
I am so so so happy and this whole experience has taught me a lot about using the Lords will as your compass. And also being a little flexible to sudden and dramatic changes in "your plan".
