Our story

The Wedding Website of Lily Hamilton and Jacob Hester
In early November of 2018, I was struggling to find healing after some bad relationships. One night out of the blue I heard the Lord say "Lily, you've been looking for love but I am Love itself". That stopped me in my tracks, and I dug deeper into His promises. As a result, I grew truly content in Him, and had no desire for a relationship. I began to pray that "in Your time, You would send me a man after Your heart". 3 weeks later I get a message from Jacob, who I did not know at the time. Something told me to respond (something I usually didn't do) and we became inseparable. Jacob later mentioned that during the month of November, he was doing a Bible study on how to be a man after God's heart, and was praying the same prayer: in His time, the Lord would send someone. One night in December he felt led to send me a message (something he also didn't do) but trusted his gut. From the night we met, we both knew this was something special. Words can't describe the faithfulness of the Lord.
He blindfolded me and took me out to my great grandparents old property that I hadn't been to in years and proposed to me there. He could not have chosen a better place!
