Meet the Cottons

Spring of 2012 at the Lubbock Invitational track meet, Young Handsome, JT Cotton, spotted Young beautiful, Maya Jones, from across the field. JT approaches Maya and asked for her name. In that moment he knew he met someone special. JT and Maya were Facebook friends for a year until Maya was brave enough to slide into JT’s DM (She knew he would take too long). She said something clever like, “I like what you post about”. JT responded with something more clever like, “ Yeah it’s important to talk about what’s real”. A few months later JT became Maya’s first boyfriend. Unfortunately, the relationship ended for a while due to the couple going their separate ways with college. They kept in touch throughout the years and JT was always a great friend and support for Maya. JT always knew that if he had another chance with Maya that he would make her his wife. In 2018 The couple reconnected. At this time, JT was mentoring, playing Semi-pro football, and working 2 jobs. Maya was in college working on her Masters degree. The couple instantly remembered how true and deep their love was. The relationship was natural and the couple knew that God had brought them back together. The couple set a goal to let their relationship glorify God, because they knew God had made them for each other.
