It means...she said yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OK, so it's true she already told me that she would say yes when I did finally ask her, but still - wow, so exciting! With all the wedding plans we have already been making for a while now, it's nice to finally make things official.
Here's an engagement prayer I found online. I wish I could take credit for writing it - I really like it, and I pray it for Holly and I:
Lord God, we ask for Your presence here with us as we prepare for our marriage. We thank you, Lord God, for being an integral part of our lives and our relationship. We ask that You continue to bless and guide us in Your calling to us to be Christ to one another and to those that surround us. Help us to remember You are the center of our lives and to keep us turning to You in times of sorrow and in the times of joy.
Lord, we ask that You bless and guide our married family and the children that You give us. Help us to instill and exemplify Your teachings in our family, so that we may never stray from Your love. We love You, Lord, and we thank You for blessing us with one another. Amen.
