If you know us, you know our love story began in children's church at the age of 8 and even before that our eyes were always set on one another. We were childhood sweethearts that grew up and eventually grew apart after many failed attempts of a relationship. As we grew apart from each other we grew apart from God. Along the way there was heartbreak, and what seemed like an eternally severed relationship. We stopped talking for years, and both of us tried putting what was, in the past, only to realize that nobody could ever compare nor take the place of the other. In November of 2017 I, Andee got born again in Christ and renewed my relationship with God thus beginning the most incredible journey of my life. I joined Praise and Worship to finally put the gifts God placed inside me to use. One Friday evening, unbeknownst to me a certain 6'4 handsome fella walked into the sanctuary to play the drums and in that moment my heart sank. During this time we were not on speaking terms yet my heart yearned for him. Here we were, yet again in the place our love began yet so much had changed. My prayer became "God, if this is your will, begin to soften his heart towards you and allow me to see the fruit of that change, if it is not your will then give me the heart to love him only as a brother." Time went on and as I prayed fervently we began to talk a little more each day. He began to open his heart to God and then he himself got born again. The more we talked, the more we realized our love was there yet it was stronger than before. We had both gone through so much individually that should've left us dead yet God had bigger plans for us. God blessed the broken road that led us back to each other. Without the trials and tribulations we endured, we wouldn't be who we are today. The understanding, appreciation and love for one another that we now have is only because of the love of our Father. This is a relationship only God can take credit for, and it's only the beginning
