How I knew Brady was “the one” | Our Story :)

As a 19 year old, who has never dated and is in deep want of a relationship right now, I needed this reminder of God's perfect timing. I know he's prepping not only me but the perons I'm to be with. He is a good Father who gives Good gifts when He knows is best tp give them.

Gods timing is perfect

Congratulations Becca. It's obvious that you are in love. You're overflowing with joy. So glad you waited upon the Lord Jesus.

I have been thinking that I have not met a single Godly person. I am literally in tears. I'm around your age. My cousins have been asking me about my relationship status. I have not been very hopeful these days. It's still difficult for me but in all my days God is good.

If only the world and the people have this high standards of morality people would be less stressed, less evil and relationship would mean so much more, more than sex ,attraction and showing off that this thier girl or boy, relationship would be more of true love in its truest form , congrats becca and brad

Beautiful story 💕 This is the way I want to meet my husband, to be talking about the Lord's things and connecting in a deep, spiritual way where it just makes my heart sing out to God for His goodness! Amen to "don't settle/compromise". God is able to do "far exceedingly above all that we ask or think"! For 2 years when I left school I was unemployed (and utterly miserable). I had no idea what I wanted to do or be, but had very high expectations and in neglecting my relationship with the Lord I felt very self willed and sure that I could make my own way, in my own strength. Over those 2 years, the Lord gently broke me down, so that I came to the darkest point in my history where I finally realised my nothingness, and my great need of Him. I had no strength left, and so He became my everything. I was kneeling on the bathroom floor that day after a bad panic attack, tears streaming down my face and I just prayed "Lord give me anything, I will sweep the streets if I have to. Whatever you need for me to do, I'll do it". It took me a long time to get to that point of surrender but I have never felt so transformed as I did after I finally surrendered everything that day. And when I looked up from my place on the floor to the window, there was a cloud in the perfect shape of a love heart, slowly moving across the otherwise cloudless blue sky! That was such a powerful reminder to me of Who God was, and it was like He was in the room with me at that point. The cloud was like His arms just wrapping around me and holding me tight. The same week He sent me to an interview for a position I never imagined I would be able to obtain, and I got the job two days later. I'm now in a career that gives me such joy- it's certainly far more than I ever thought, hoped or prayed for. Jesus knows what we want, what we need, who we need and when. Trusting Him daily and anchoring ourselves in Him is so important. Like you said about the ladder- trusting in ourselves only leads to us falling flat on our faces (as I proved in those two horrible- yet looking back, truly beautiful- years!) So just as the Lord worked out all things for good as to my employment (which seemed so impossible at the start), I'm trusting Him as to a husband. Its seems impossible to me that anyone would want to spend the rest of their life with me, and I'm always compromising in my mind, but our God is good, faithful and true to His word. He knows how to give good gifts to His children! (P.s you're literally glowing 😂)

My boyfriend and I love walking and talking as well! We have our best conversations when we're out in God's creation!

Brady is a lucky guy :-) Just remember, God's purpose isn't our happiness, it's that Jesus Christ be glorified. This also applies to marriage. So I wish you two a blessed rest of your lives together!

I have been engaged twice and married once. My record isn't too impressive, but I would say try and work on the skills you need for being married. A wedding lasts a day, your marriage should last a lifetime. Work on conflict resolution skills, compromise and expecting to go to bed with each other when you absolutely hate each other. Learn to ask the question, "Do I want to die on this hill," meaning, "Is this worth arguing about?" Learn to say, "I'm sorry, I should not have done that and I won't do it again," and mean it. Travel together for a week with only one pair of clothes and $100 to live off of. No deodorant, no toothbrush, no toothpaste. Trust me, you will have less than $100 to live off of for at least one week in your life. Being uncomfortable is part of life. Learn that Philippians 2:5-8 (NIV) is the secret to a successful marriage.

I’m so happy for you! I had the same confidence with my fiancé that I’d marry him. I knew in only 4 months of dating 3 years ago and now we’re getting married in 3 weeks on our third year anniversary! He wasn’t everything I wanted in a man but God knew what I needed and he’s so much more than I could’ve ever wanted for myself. So glad I left my love life in God’s hands ❤️

Don't marry the one you can live with, but the one you cannot.live without ☺️

Wow this is so lovely! praise God that we are not in control 🙌🏽❤️

Not one mention of how many chairs he can carry at once??

Your smile 😊 when you talk about Brady is Sooo huge! You just beam from ear to ear. So happy for you Becca! ❤️your love story is kind of similar to mine. I kept letting my guard down and compromising on things that I knew deep down I shouldn’t be, and honestly didn’t want to be. But then I met my super sweet, kind, handsome fiancé 💕💕. His name is David. We are getting married June 12, 2021.

Congratulations Becca, You inspire me. I got engaged recently too to a wonderful guy i met in my university cafeteria almost two years ago. I was a sophomore he was a senior. He’s the sweetest thing ever😊 we love doing ministry and I can’t see a life without him in it. I came to the US from Jamaica in 2018 on a track scholarship. never thought my life would take the direction it did but boy is God awesome! He wasn’t exactly what imagined for my life at first but he is who i need and I’m good over here! Lol.😊❤️Our love prevails through the worst and I am so excited 🤗for the journey of our future that God has for us! We have grown and are growing so much. All glory to God. His will and timing is perfect. We want to marry August of next year after I graduate in May. God bless you. Keep sharing ❤️🙏🙂

How I knew? Well I did not know...I just fell in love and tried to win her. Of course we prayed. But romantism might have been more important than prayer. (God is very romantic too!) Of course we both wanted someone that loves Jesus. We married nearly three years later after Bibleschool. Waited with sex until we were married - God gave us grace and strength!) And now I think she is the right one.. .: Still happy after 41 years and our love and our dedication to Jesus is growing. God be praised.

I'm so happy for you! I met someone like this.. But God is also telling me to slow down and focus on him (I tend to make idols out of people) and where he is leading me and I am SO glad I did that at this time! Everything is working out just fine, with the guy and with other things. I kind of feel I am moving at warp speed with growth right now but :) I feel at peace.

Really crazy how this popped in my suggested, the Lord works in mysterious ways.

Thanks for the encouragement. ❤️

So happy for you!
