I am blown away, quite delighted, and yet mostly unsurprised by an exciting trend on my blog: according to several of my analytics platforms, my most popular post over the last few months has been my post on waiting for your future spouse.

As I said in my post sharing my favorite life lessons from a movie I love, Courageous, this movie specifically encouraged me in my singleness.
