Engaged

as of 2:15 (ish) Wednesday November 18, 2009.

Belinda recorded the allegory.

Of all the things people told us about being engaged, no one mentioned how much fun it is to tell people about it.

What a surprise Matt!

I honestly have trouble believing you, simply amazed and happy for you. I can still recall how at Dmitri House you claimed to never have had a girlfriend. It can't be more than a year since then, so I have to admit its pretty miraculous how fast its gone.

That's just wonderful Matt, I wish you the best of luck. I hope everything continues to work for you in life. You seem to be given yourself over to Lord, and he has given you the what he has promised humanity. Those that follow him will be blessed. Blessed in their relationships, blessed in their dealings with others.

Much has changed since I first met you, at first Social Justice meant volunteering. I didnt really enjoy the idea of a bible study. But that was a different Erik, now I have 2-3 prayer groups weekly. Before I thought that the best gift the Lord might give, would be peace of mind. But that was before last Friday. Our new Confirmation, when the Holy Spirit came upon us. A year ago I would have been baffled by speaking in tongues, today its a part of life.

Matt, I am glad to see how much a life can change in a year, after what has happened to you in this year. I can only look with anticipation to the future.

All the best to the both of you.
Erik
