Mine Heart, In a Nutshell

I started writing a description of myself for Google+, and found myself on a roll. Felt like I wanted to post how I see myself here too.

I am a lover of God, friend of women, protector and comforter of those who need it.

Prayer and faith are God's foremost gifts to me.

Known by some as the quiet gentleman, to others as the foolish comedian.

I am slow to anger but quick to fury.

I am forgiving to a flaw, but can struggle in forgiving someone for years if anger is left to fester.

I care not for what others think of me, but the words of those I love can change me overnight.

I'm a youth leader and I love my kids more deeply than almost anything else in the world - they strengthen and encourage me far more than I could possibly ever do for them.

I'm a sucker for attention and affection, but am quickly turned off if ignored or avoided.

I've never had a girlfriend because I want to be absolutely sure of myself before I so much as say a word.

The woman I marry will be loved, protected, and never in need - this I'm committed to, and ask my God to ensure despite my own shortcomings.

I respect no man more than my father, and owe everything to my mother.

A day with little time invested in my bible is worse than a day with only one meal.

I am easily content, even to a fault.
