    • "Sees me for the awesome woman of God I am, who wants to help me become the awesome woman of God I can be." (Unka Glen)
    • “Seen me at my absolute worst yet still believes in my absolute best” (Isa)
    • “Don’t promise me anything. Pray about everything before you say or do it. Encourage me and give me hope. But do not give me empty promises based in emotion or with the intent of making me “feel better”.”

  • A pursuer
    • “considers it a MIRACLE that he’s with me. He’s got to believe that there is no way he could’ve ever gotten with you if not for God’s orchestration. Nobody wants to be with a man who is with her because she is ‘good enough’ — you want to be too good for him and you want him to be man enough to pursue you.” (Isa)
    • Takes leaps FOR and WITH me.
  • Approved by both our parents
