Blog 39: I’m Engaged!

How did it happen? Did he get down on one knee? Whats the ring look like? When are you getting married? Don’t you think its too soon? Will I be invited? Who are the Bridesmaids going to be? Have you got a ring? Will people manage to fly over? When you get engaged I didn’t realise that there were so many questions that people would ask and that people would be so interested in the whole thing.

It is said that ‘love conquers all’ and I really think that it is true. Love can help in everything and it can help soothe all things. Over the last 9 or so months life has been hard and tricky and sometimes I have not wanted to be alive but other than God I have had one that has stood by me during the whole thing. A person that I met 4 years ago, a person that I always called my best friend, a person that I began to like, a person who became my boyfriend and a person who is now my fiance! I am still in shock that someone would want to deal and love me for the rest of their life!

It has been a while since the ‘question was popped’ but we have had to tell so many different people and start planning. We have got the date of the wedding ready but we still need to do so much more-I didn’t realise that planning a wedding was so much hard work but it is so enjoyable! There is so much that goes into planning a wedding that I didn’t even know needed doing. I have been to so many different weddings and I feel now that I have taken each one with so much granted. The wedding party and family must have done so much.

In all of this I can’t believe that by the end of next summer I will be a Mrs Singarajah and I will have a man that I can call my husband and someone that can call me their wife. I know that there is so much still to do but we are looking forward to being a married to couple. We are so thankful to all the people that have helped us through this journey to be where we are today. We are so thankful that God led us together and that He has helped to be the people He has wanted us to be. If it was not for God and His church then Daniel and I would have never met and we are so thankful that we did!

I am so thankful and blessed to be able to have Daniel in my life but even better to have a godly and Christ-like man that I am going to marry. God led us together and through all the tough and hard times that we have gone through God has helped and supported us through people around us and His word. I am so thankful and can’t wait to see what God has planned for our joint lives together!
