Amen. After I got divorced, I told God I wanted to be happily married some day, but that I was not going to go out and look for a man, that He’d have to bring one to me. Six years later, a man walked into my place of work, and the minute I saw him, I knew he was the one. After we had spent hours on the phone with each other, he confided in me that a couple of weeks before we met, he had re-dedicated his life to the Lord, and had asked God to bring him a Godly woman. We’ve been happily married for fourteen years.
That is really terrific! Mine was actually similar.
I was all meloncoly (at 43 I lived with my parents for a month or so) and went to my 25 year class reunion, where I met my now wife. She lived in South Dakota and had flown to Seattle for the reunion. The same thing had just happened to her. I fell in love just talking with her at Shakeys. We didn’t “get together”, but she gave me her address and phone number.
850 emails, $3,500 in long distance calls and two months later, she came out to Seattle for a few days and I proposed on that trip.
