When it all began

Lets set the scene. September. 2016. Wednesday night. Bible Study.

The past few months have been a world wind. A long term relationship I was in had ended. I was in college and now here I am trying to figure out who I am without this person in my life. However, my life would be forever changed in a blink of an eye. This is where I truly feel the timeline of my life begins.

One of my closest friends, who just so happens to be my pastors wife, knew this guy who had recently gotten out of a long term relationship. He was also trying to figure out who he was and was looking for change. That change was Jesus. Not only for him but for me too.

So, after our Bible study was finished, my friend introduced us. Here he comes. 6’4. Red Head. Football player. And lets just say, just a tad older than me. We talked for a little bit and it seemed like we hit it off. This was something I was not looking for. Here I am a senior in college, had just gotten out of a relationship, I needed to focus on school and my life. I don’t have room for entertaining someone else, let alone another relationship. I needed to work on myself before I could even think about opening up to someone. But, here comes the work of the Lord. The next day, he asked me to lunch. We went to Buffalo Wild Wings. You know, keeping it casual. As the conversation went on, it felt natural. Like we had known each other for years, but yet my heart fluttered and the butterflies would not stop. I did not know this feeling as I had never experienced anything like this before. I know it sounds crazy, but I knew that day that this man would one day be my husband.

…..the classic cliff hanger. Join me as I continue my story and we dive into life, together!
