“Dear Ed –
Here’s another success story for you. Burned out on traditional dating, I decided to try the online thing. I was skeptical, but it seemed at least a positive way to meet other Christians when I didn’t have a lot of time to join singles groups in the area.
I liked that 101ChristianDating was a free website, which encouraged me to keep going. I joined during a time where there were some technical difficulties early in the year – my account was lost in cyberspace. But then I stumbled across a profile of a wonderful man. He’d been inactive for quite some time, but his honest, detailed answers to the questions impressed me, as well as his tall stature and cute smile 🙂
He told me later that he rarely even read his notes from the website, and had lately considered deleting his account. But something made him read my letter, and he replied. It turned out he was from the town I used to live in- we had never met- and that he spent a lot of time in my current hometown on vacations etc. He lived about 300 miles away, but immediately told me that he would move if anything more came of our new friendship, since I was deeply established in my community with a business and my family. We prayed a whole lot, and met in person about two months later, at the end of March.
After that, God made it increasingly apparent to both of us that our search was over. Micah began looking for work in my area and made the long drive over whenever he could. After a weekend camping with my family in July, Micah came to my town for an interview, and asked me to be his wife. I said yes!!! He got the job the next day, as well as secured an apartment, and moved over two weeks later. We were married September 2.
Thank you for the ministry / service you offer. Though I’ve gotten some flack for finding my husband ‘on the internet’, I know that God can use anything and anyone to bring about His plan in the way that gives Him the most glory. The details of our story are much too long to share in this letter, but each and every one shows His hand, His provision, guidance, protection, and blessing.
We look forward to building our marriage on the rock-solid foundation of Jesus Christ. Blessings, Beloved83 and Sar117.”
