We met working at Walmart. I liked him from the start. After all I was a minister's daughter and he was a minister so "it was meant to be!" Not only that, but he had such a sweet smile and people respected him, for a minister fresh out of Bible school that's a high compliment. Most of the people we worked with didn't even go to church for Easter! Unfortunately he didn't agree with my ideas of "fate." After all he was a Baptist minister and I was a Pentecostal, obviously this was not a relationship worth pursuing. After a year and a half I moved away. He just moved on.
It's amazing how God works, my father had taken a small country church and through a series of events I became the worship leader there. After some time Tim took a church an hour away also in the country. For the next three years outside of the occasional comment on Myspace or Facebook we had little to do with each other.
Until one day his sister decided to take matters into her own hands and began texting me about him. Once again I became interested. Only this time so did he. Two days before his sister's wedding Tim finally asked me out. Seven months later we were engaged and on July 17th, 2010 we said "I do."
What changed? God. I learned alot living with my parents as they fought to keep a church of less than ten running. I also learned alot about my own relationship with God. It's a good thing to because I'm going to need it.
