Unexpected Love

It was May 2016. It was a normal day, college semester was over, I was trying to find work, but I also joined a dating site a couple days before. Why did I suddenly do this ? I was ready to meet someone special and eventually commit my life to them in marriage. I thought, " I am already 25, I have studied deeply about having a right relationship, so Let me pray and see who God may bring into my life." I never expected what came next. It all started with, "Hi." No, I didn't say it first. A beautiful woman from the Philippines, Analiza, decided to initiate the greeting. It was the first woman who messaged me on the site, and the only one I conversed with. I checked out her profile, saw that she seemed to enjoy God and family, and so I decided to say hi back. That was the beginning of my life changing forever.

What started out as a simple hi would end up 6 months later as an adventure in the Philippines marrying the love of my life. I didn't expect all of this to happen when I signed up for the site. I was sure it would be a long journey just to find a person. I heard about all the scams on dating sites. Yet God was gracious, He showed favor, and He gave me a wonderful wife.

It's too awesome but the most wonderful things usually come with the most challenges.
