From the beginning of our story, the Lord has fit every puzzle piece together. I had no idea when I joined a Bible study last summer that my life would be completely changed forever. I joined Bens sisters Bible study last May just thinking I was finding a group of ladies to have in my support system. I had no idea the group would lead me down the path of finding my husband.
Our group meets together with the corresponding guys group once a month. The first time I went to meet the guys my friend and I had been joking around that day saying, what if I find my future husband at group tonight! I never imagined a joke would turn into a reality!
After study that evening as we were sitting around the fire, I ended up sitting alone just listening to everyones conversations. All of the sudden a figure appeared and sat down beside me! Ben came and began to talk to me. I was immediately struck by his easy-going personality and fun sense of humor. We talked for hours about everything from work to music to our future dreams. I left that evening excited and overwhelmed. I kept praying that the Lord would just work everything out according to His will.
In a way, the rest history. Ben messaged me on Facebook a few days later and not one day has gone by since that we havent talked in some form or fashion. He asked me on a date and before I knew it, I realized I was falling in love! His kindness, generosity, love, joy, and smile swept me off my feet. I have been amazed to see how Ben is everything and more I have always dreamed of in a life partner. The Lord has been so gracious to bring us together and fit every piece of our relationship into place. We give Him all the praise and glory for everything He has done in our lives. We are beyond excited to see where He takes us in this new journey together.

The day I met Olivia will be a day I will never forget! I was at a small group gathering that I attend through a church called Cumberland Fellowship. During these events we fellowship and have food and play games and on nice days we will have a campfire. Everyone loves a good old campfire! Some of my fondest memories are around campfires and this is the top of the list! I was around the fire, and I noticed this very attractive and very bubbly person sitting a few seats away from me. That person happened to be no other than Olivia. Someone was sitting next to her at the time, and I remember thinking "I wish that person next to her would get up and give me a chance to sit next to her!" To my delight they got up to leave and I took this as my opportunity to start a conversation with her, so I got up and sat myself right down next to her and we hit it off very well. We talked about everything under the sun, ranging from Lord of the rings to future trips we would love to go on, to our goals and dreams! We talked and laughed for hours, but it felt like minutes. We parted ways that evening with me smiling ear to ear thinking, "could she be the one?" After a few days with many thoughts and prayers, I decided to reach out to Olivia and see where God would take us. After going on a few dates with her, I knew she was one in a billion! I never imagined I would find someone like her, and I am beyond thankful to God for blessing me with some as incredible as Olivia! Getting to know Olivia has been the biggest blessing in my entire life! God's timing is absolutely perfect, and He brought us together in a very special way. Her love for the Lord and others is such an incredible thing to witness and experience!! I can’t wait to see where God takes us and I’m so excited to call her my wife!
