Steve and I had never met when he was a week away from saying "I do" to someone else and I was moments from doing the same with someone else.
His fiancée, and everybody else it seems,told me all about Steve and how wonderfully he played the piano and what a great guy he is but it would still be several years before he and I would meet.
After his engagement broke and the wedding cancelled, he dated a violinist for a year named, "Ellen" - but she was not me.
Meanwhile, I was praying earnestly for God to give me the 'right' husband. I vowed at this point that I wouldn't even date but would develop my relationship with Him only and trust that He would bring the love of my life to me. I almost missed it and would have except that I kept praying and even fasting. I had learned to be sensitive to the quiet voice of God and in His timing, Steve and I finally met. What I was told about him was correct! We wed after dating for a year. Soon we will celebrate 39 years of marriage.
I am authoring a Memoir of my life and soon I will write the amazing chapter about how my life with Steve almost did not happen. I see so much pain in America and much of it is because we struggle with trusting God with our life - and too often we do not. I am a true testament about the rewards that come when we 'fall back' on Him and let go of stubbornness and ignorance. We never risk with trusting God... we only gain!
