My mother always told me "marry a man who loves Jesus and he will never lack love for you". It's one of the truest things I've ever learned.
Because Jase has a personal relationship with God, he has a deeper understanding for what love really is. His love for me (and mine for him) is a small reflection of the unconditional, and never ending love our Savior has for us [John 3:16].
When Jase first told that me he loved me (a year after dating), it was because he knew it was a decision he was making. Because he had waited to commit to those words, I knew that his love for me was not a love that was merely based off of his feelings, but rather, a much thought out decision he made...and a direction we would be working towards together.
Our love isn't perfect, because we're not perfect, and we're sinners [Romans 3:23]. But, our love is being perfected by the one who is perfect!

Counting the days till I get to marry this sweet man. Only 54 to go! :)
