How we Knew We were meant for each other

First date, July 21

Hayden's story Before our first date, I was so nervous that I actually asked her what I should wear. I wanted everything to be perfect. But no amount of planning could have prepared me for the moment I arrived to pick her up. The second she walked out the door. She look so beautiful and everything I had ever dreamed of. In that moment I just knew- this was the woman God had brought into my life, the woman I would spend my life with. She was more than I had prayed for, more than I even know to ask for. From that night on, my heart belonged to her, and every day since has only confirmed what I felt in that very first moment. Daniela's story The moment Hayden arrived to pick me up for our first date, I opened the door and noticed his cheeks instantly turn red. I couldn’t help but smile and asked if he was okay. He just smiled back, clearly a little flustered, and in that simple moment, I saw something truly special. It was sweet, endearing, and made me realize just how genuine he was. That night, we played mini-golf, and what started as a casual game quickly became something much more meaningful. We laughed, we competed (maybe a little too seriously at times), and we talked for hours as if we had known each other forever. There was something about him—something different, something unmistakably special. It was in the way he listened to me, in the way he made me feel completely at ease, and in the way his presence just felt so right. Looking back, I now see that night wasn’t just a fun first date—it was the beginning of something extraordinary, a story that God had already written for us. And in that moment, I knew this was just the start of a beautiful journey together.

Fun Fact

After months of dating, we made a surprising discovery: we had actually been in the same places at the same time on several occasions—yet, we never saw each other. It’s amazing to think how close we were without even knowing it. But looking back, we realize that It wasn’t yet the right moment for us to meet, but when the time was finally right, God brought us together in the perfect way. Now, we truly believe our journey together was always meant to be, and that our paths crossed exactly when God knew we were ready.
