My First Post :)

Thank you for taking a look at my blog! This is my first blog and I would like to keep it going for as long as possible, so lets begin!
My names is Hayden, I'm 17, a senior in high school and I love the Lord with all my heart, soul and mind.  I love having deep conversations with my family about life and spending time investing in my friends lives.  I will say though I am most different from eveyone in my family, the only thing we all share in common is our love for the Lord.  I used to be homeschooled up until 8th grade and then felt called to attend a public high school my freshman year.  I loved homeschooling but the Lord had other plans in store for me.  I've learned so many things, good and bad, but most of all benficial for me and my future family I hope to have.  I learned that I am a much stronger person than I thought (not that I thought I wasn't strong) and I was forced to stand up for what I believe in and stand tall in the truth.  All in all and most importantly I grew, more than I could ever imagined , in My God.  How I stand apart in my family can be accredited to my homeschooling background.  I am much more conservative than most (well, all) of my siblings. I have certain convictions, like wearing dresses and skirts only, homeschooling all my children (once I marry and have them)  and not using any form of birth control.  Which brings me to my next subject, I am part of whats called the quiverfull movement.  A group of people who don't believe in any form of family planning, but  rather leave the timing of each child to God and except each one as a blessing.  I feel that even if I did believe in using birth control that If the Lord wanted me to have a child then I would have one, birth control or not.  I also trust that He will provide my husband and I with everything necessary to provide for our children.  So for now I'm here to serve the Lord while I wait for Him to bring me the wonderful man I know He has already created for me :)
Thanks again for taking a look at my blog! I look forward to many posts in the near future!


In His service,

~Hayden
