It becomes inherently obvious that God works all things together for the good of those who love him. Starting with a mission trip in 2017 and then connecting through mutual friends without understanding the relevance of it all. After years of being acquainted and forming a close friendship, we spent a month in Alaska together growing through missions and what God had placed in our paths. What followed was a waterfall of events that lead to a passion for us to pursue one another in biblical courtship.
To say that we are caught up in a whirlwind romance would be too cheesy for the both of us. In February of 2021, we went on our first date and our journey has only grown since then. This beautiful life that God has created was meant to be shared with the one whom your heart knits itself with, day in and day out, through all the miscommunication, joyful tears, and laughs beyond compare or understanding.
Each day we wake up and are grateful for one another and the time we spend together. We make the most of our time, playing disc golf, hanging out with friends, watching tv, cooking together, and enjoying the season of life that we are in. It is a blessing for us to live just a short drive away from each other and to give any time we can to one another. There is no way that we could have gotten to this place in our lives without the Lord and his provisions for our lives, both in separate ways and together as one.
Outside of our last year of college together at Mississippi State University, we have no idea what the future holds; that is what makes life so adventurous and exciting. But we know that with the Lord holding our hands, we will go far.
