"Courtship is a season for two people to grow in friendship, to get to know each other's character, and to see how they interact as a couple." Joshua Harris
On the night Eugene asked Sara Rose if he could court her...and she accepted; her Dad gathered the family to pray with them. Two people with the love, support, prayers of two families.
Is this a pre-engagement? No. No big announcement....although word is spreading! We want people to know so they can pray for this couple who are both seeking God's will.
Is it a pre-arranged situation?
Two sets of parents picking and deciding God's will? I mean, "courtship" sounds so old-fashioned....No. Although we do like Eugene a lot.....we did not do a search....
These two young people have decided to build on a friendship. Two young people wanting to see if they will be able to benefit the other, not building a relationship on selfish needs and desires.
This week our Sara Rose gets to spend about a week with Eugene and his family before his next semester of college begins. They are so excited! I am really looking forward to hearing all about the trip!
Yep...here it comes...a RECIPE! One of Eugene's favorite snacks....
Puppy Chow
Directions
- In a saucepan over low heat, melt the chocolate; add peanut butter and mix until smooth.
- Remove from heat, add cereal and stir until coated.
- Pour powdered sugar into large plastic bag, add coated cereal and shake until well coated. Store in airtight container.
Eugene and Sara Rose, we are excited about this opportunity for you to spend this time together.
Enjoy!
I love the idea of courtship, what a great way to make sure things arent rushed, parents grant their blessings and the couple is surrounded by love and support. I'm so happy for them and the journey before them. Love puppy chow too!
