"I have loved you with an EVERLASTING love"

Hello friends! Wow, my heart is so passionate about you! Yup you. And you’re right, I may not know you well, but man, you live inside my heart. Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Ashley. My life began out East, but my present story is here in Alberta… And I love it.

                I want you to know that the girls you have already met, Christy, Chantelle and Charlene as well as Tina who you will meet in due time are amazing ladies. They have amazing incredible hearts that are first of all passionate about God and passionate about you. They have laid their hearts out to you, shared their dreams and their gifts. I’ve often asked God what my gift is…what I am called to do. And you know what….God has showed me. Are you ready for it… I am a sap, I LOVE love.  I am one of those people who love a good love story, it gets me every single time. I live by my heart, and as painful and amazing as that can be, I wouldn’t have it any other way.  I love those timeless love stories, Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, and the Notebook. All of them. But the timeless love story that I love the most is the GREATEST love story of all time. The one that God is writing with me.

                God said in Jeremiah 31:3, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving kindness”. Did you know God is absolutely smitten with you? He knows every single thing about you, the great stuff, the not so great stuff, and absolutely everything in between. And you know what? Even knowing all that He knows He is desperate for you. He created you, and He is amazed by you. And you know what? You take God’s breath away. You are His masterpiece, His most glorious creation. Read Psalm 139.

                My prayer for you, and for me is that we would become absolutely wrecked by God’s amazing love for us. You may not know God well, you may even be angry with Him, or feel disappointed in Him, but He loves you, has always loved you and will never stop loving you. I want you to know that I am praying for you. You did not come to this blog by happenstance or chance. It was pre-appointed and pre-destined because God loves you and He has great desires in His heart for you. He longs to take you on a journey in the greatest love story ever told. You ARE His princess/prince, you ARE exquisite and beautiful NO MATTER what anyone, including yourself has said over you. YOU are so worthy.

                I want you to know that I am partnering with you on this journey called life. God has great hopes, dreams and plans for your lives if you will open up your heart to Him. He longs to take you places you could only dream of. He longs to change your heart, my heart, and to consume us with an everlasting love.

                From my heart to yours,

                                Ashley
