Our Wedding

Our story is not really our story. The story certainly centers around us, but we cannot be given the credit for where we are today. When we met, neither of us were aware that we had met the one we would eventually marry. We were simple fifteen year olds who saw only glimpses of the spouse in one another that we both thought about and prayed for. As we grew up, we grew together. The shared blessing of a small Christian high school allowed us to navigate both love and life, which were intertwined in that simple and safe setting at the young age of sixteen when we started dating. He grew to admire her fierce love for justice and her ardent protection of those she loved to a fault. She began to love how he always sought to see the good in others and his willingness to sacrifice to meet their needs. By the end of high school, our love was so deeply evident that going to college in Ohio together did not seem crazy to anyone, and certainly not to us. Our love didn’t descend upon us in a moment of sudden and magnificent clarity. We had a shared love for our Savior that drove us through the everyday. And in the moments of everyday obedience, we found and loved each other. Our union in the covenant of marriage is another act of obedience to the Lord’s calling; an act that is significantly more important than any other beside salvation, yes, but an act that is nevertheless based with absolute confidence and conviction. We believe that the best part of our story is that we both trust the Author to write whatever He sees fit into it. He is sovereign, and that is all we need for our shared story from here on out.
