Two and a half years ago, two technologically challenged people, a widow and a widower, "Anita" and "Onlybygrace", entered our profiles on ChristianCafe.com. We have now been happily married for fifteen months. The short version is that a lovely princess jumped out of the palace tower into the arms of her prince, and they galloped off, the princess leaving the wintry north country for the mountains of Appalachia, to hike, kayak, and serve the Lord together in bluegrass country.
The longer version is that, protected by the anonymity which ChristianCafe.com provides, we were drawn by the honesty and Christian testimony in each other's profiles, and a correspondence with your kind protections blossomed into trust, more extensive correspondence through our own emails, visits, phone calls, and a deep loving relationship that was swept along by the currents of our wedding, accompanied by the blasting beauty of pipe organ and bagpipes and the singing of "All Creatures of Our God and King", "Be Thou My Vision", and "Amazing Grace". Those songs summarize our praise to the Lord, our prayer for His guidance for the future for ourselves and other couples, and our thanks for God's grace which "taught our hearts to fear", "has brought us safe thus far", and will "safely lead us home."
It was a God-thing that brought us together. In Yiddish they say "bashert--it was meant to be"; but we are ever grateful for the Lord using ChristianCafe.com as His instrument to introduce us and hold our hand in the first months of our courtship. May the Lord continue to bless you.
