Important Update

Our Wedding

What a beautiful gift it is to be known and to be loved. First and fully by our Father in heaven, who knows our inmost need and gave us new life in His Son. To believe in such a truth and be shaped by it’s implications, brings us to love one another in the same way. Not only to seek to know one another deeply, but also to love one another truly. Indeed, what a beautiful gift it is to be known and to be loved. But as I think about the relationship Westin and I share, what a privilege it is to know and to love someone, to choose to love each and every day. Westin and I became friends in the fall of 2019 while we were working on the Campus Experience team at Cedarville University. My team would plan the events and his team would set everything up, so as you’d imagine, we spent a good amount of time together whether we were doing homework at the library or completing a late night set up. With the many events we did, it really was no surprise that our relationship sparked during an event on Valentine’s Day of 2020. Picture this: it’s 3 minutes before the start of square dancing, and I’m a part of the example group...WITHOUT A PARTNER. My eyes scan the room for a familiar face, and quite literally, Westin walks through the door. “Westin, Westin! Come be my partner!” I yell across the room. Surprised, Westin points to himself and hurries over. Neither of us had ever square danced before, so we have no idea what to expect when Ray Beavers, the square dance caller, tells us to face our partner. “Alright, to start out, I need ya to hold your partner’s hands.” Westin’s hands are strong but also gentle. His blue eyes sparkle as his smile grows and laughter resounds. Butterflies flutter in my chest and begin to take flight as he spins me around. I don’t know how, but all 200 people in the room somehow disappear in that moment, and it’s just Westin and me: laughing, smiling, tripping over my own feet, thinking to myself, “Wow, I really like this guy!” We’d always been friends, but something was different about that night. And I knew when I looked into his eyes, he felt it too. To this day, I’m still laughing and smiling. Still tripping over my own feet, only now I think, “Wow, I deeply love this man.” When I first met Westin, I had no idea of the depth of affection we would share. I had no idea I could love someone as much as I do Westin. To be known and to be deeply, unconditionally loved? Oh what a gift, a true treasure! My time with Westin has surely been just that: a gift. We’ve journeyed through sweet moments and times of hardship, we’ve laughed and cried, rejoiced and mourned, but time and time again, the Lord has brought us together and strengthened our love. Truly, the Lord has made us more like Christ in these past two years: more loving, more compassionate and forgiving, more gracious and understanding, more sacrificial and kind. Truly, our Father in Heaven is perfect in his timing and gracious in his gifts to his children. Westin is truly my very best friend, and I cannot wait to spend the rest of my life by his side. May 15th, please come soon!
