I Waited 13 Years for Marriage… Then Everything Changed in 9 Months

For 13 years, my story was marked by singleness, waiting, and trusting God even when it felt quiet, confusing, or costly. In this video, we’re finally sharing the background of how our story began and what was happening before we ever started dating. I open up about my waiting season, how the last man I tried to date was actually a counterfeit, and how that ending was one of the clearest signs that God was up to something new. I also share about the intense spiritual warfare that came right before everything shifted. Nate shares his side of singleness too. How God asked him to lay down his own desires, what it meant to obey God when the call didn’t come with clarity or comfort, and the challenges that came with believing God was telling him I was his wife. We talk about: how we met at a singles conference and our very different perspectives of that moment why I wasn’t fully into Nate at first (or so I thought) how he could sense something I couldn’t yet see the exact moment God told him I was his wife and how, at the same time, God told me to reach out to him We end this video right at the turning point. Not with how we became boyfriend and girlfriend…but with the moment obedience met confirmation. Part 2 is where we share how everything actually unfolded. If you’re in a season of waiting, discerning, or wondering whether God is still working behind the scenes, this conversation is for you. Let us know in the comments what stood out to you most, or what season you’re currently walking through.
