God knew I was tired of looking, hoping, searching. He knew I needed someone to cross my path that day on the bus to the Liberty main campus. He knew I would need some kind of personal connection in order to spark the interest so He let him meet my brother first. He knew that neither one of us were expecting it, and that was the best surprise of all. He knew I would be hesitant at first, but also that this man He led into my life would be oh so patient and persistent. He knew that a quiet small-town girl needed a loud traveling man. Our story started on a bus, and it has just moved and grown into a love that neither one of us ever imagined. God knew what he was doing when he brought this Beauty and Beast together with something as simple as meeting on a bus.
