Ashlee's Quest

Ashlee's Quest

I come to you for guidance...since my father, your brother is gone.

What do I look for in my mate?

I come to you for guidance... since my father is gone...

What path should I take?

I come to you for guidance...since my father is gone...

With my dreams and hopes and wishes.... my QUESTIONS...

Who will walk me down the aisle when I marry? Who will give me away?

Will you do my hair? Do you think I am beautiful?

I take a deep breath, praying for the right wisdom to share. To share with my dear sweet Ashlee what my brother might have told.

Yes, you ARE beautiful...without a doubt!

I want you to understand, and search for the truth of your heart as a woman. God has designed you. YOU are incredibly intelligent, creative and significant.

We as women long for romance. We long to be rescued. We long for a hero to steal us away, protection. We long to be beautiful. These longings do not make you weak, nor brainless, it is the design of God. Our hearts desire to be KNOWN!! To be fought for, to be pursued, to want an adventure to share that is bigger than that of one. To be delighted in.

We, as women...can not find ALL that we need, everyday, in a man ... as hard as he might try:) We are designed to dance with our Heavenly Father. He wants to take you in His arms and dance with you.. hold you tight...quiet your soul in the night and shelter you...He wants to make your soul sing... and your spirit laugh....to dance DANCE!!!

Someday, my Dearest Ashlee, God will send you the perfect, imperfect man just for you. I am praying every day that he meets your needs, protects you and nurtures you. Held safe in his arms during the night and he encourages you so that you can fly. That he is romantic and calls you just because, looks longingly at you even on your ugliest of days. Extends his hand to you even when your old and wrinkled...but, know this... your father, my brother - would say... no one will be good enough for his little princess!

Rest in the knowledge that your earthly Father is watching over you... that each step you take he loves you and IS proud of you... Know that each step you take along your path is guided by the hand of God...and He wants the best for you.. stay on His path..be true to your heart.. live today with joy..believe that you can do anything - because you can. Know that sometimes the best route for you is not the easiest.. follow your dreams....let your creativity and fearless nature take you where your hearts desires lay...for those, coupled with God's hand can lead you to your destiny. Not for the weak of heart....but for you. You are a princess.. but you are a warrior - fearless and and wholly beatiful.

I love you Ashlee
