The love ❤ story of my husband and I started in the most unexpected way! It happened to me like when you don't look for anything but you find everything.
I had 1 year attending church, only dedicated to serving the King of Kings, in love with his presence, without encouragement or intention to find someone (although in my prayers I always asked for that person that God had for me), apart from not there was no one of my interest in the congregation.
Siempre frecuentaba el negocio de un amigo y hermano en Cristo, en enero de 2017 ahí fue donde conocí a Kleiner, quien sin imaginármelo se convertiría en el amor de mi vida. Comenzamos una amistad normal, conversábamos mucho y teníamos muchas cosas en común. Cumplió años el 17 de Marzo y ese día le obsequie un cup cake que para ese entonces yo vendía! Lo felicite normal y seguí mi camino. Al poco tiempo coincidíamos mucho en el local de mi amigo, ya que es su primo!
I always frequented the business of a friend and brother in Christ, in January 2017 that was where I met Kleiner, who without imagining it would become the love of my life. We started a normal friendship, we talked a lot and we had many things in common. He had a birthday on March 17th and that day I gave him a cup cake that I was selling at that time! I congratulated him normally and went on my way. In a short time we met a lot at my friend's place, since he is his cousin!
In a short time we became closer, he received Christ in his heart and we already had more things in common! But I went to another church ... we accompanied each other everywhere and going anywhere, conversations where a coffee could not be missed, the chemistry between us was activated and without realizing it we found ourselves saying good morning, telling us how our day went and I couldn't say goodnight goodbye.
Without realizing it, that healthy friendship turned into a stronger feeling. Without realizing it, we began to feel "that inexplicable", we found ourselves wanting to spend every moment together and this was nothing like what we had previously felt for someone else.
At first many were opposed to our relationship, as he had not been separated from his former partner for long. They told me: "That man is not for you", "That is not the man that God designed for you." They even suggested that I get away from him for a while, but my heart, and even the Holy Spirit told me that if he was that person that I had waited so long for, that I had asked God so much. What he felt was unmatched, it was a resounding security, it was not soulishness, it was not just butterflies in the stomach, since it was not a girl! She was a 30-year-old woman who had already lived and had never felt something like this with anyone.
I did not want to separate myself from him, or at least keep the distance that they were advising me to take, it was not rebellion. We had already expressed what we felt for each other and I didn't want to lose that, it went beyond physical attraction.
In July we started the relationship as a couple. The waters were still murky, but the Pastor of the church approached me to speak to know and understand what was happening, since my husband's ex-partner was attending the same church! Something crazy right? But God always has a reason. I spoke with the Pastor and he told me, if you are sure that he will come talk to me and that he will come here for this congregation and work for God as a couple. At that moment my nerves invaded me, I did not want to say anything to Kleiner, I began to feel a little fear, and it was when that night I got ready to pray and be in the presence of God, I told him: “Father, if this man is really The one you designed for me, when I propose that we work for you together, will say YES without excuses or hesitation, and if it is not God, take away this feeling that does not come from you ”.
That night she had already told him that the next day she needed to talk to him! We agreed that after leaving work we would meet him to talk and that's how it was! That day I went to his house, we had coffee and our conversation began. The most decisive conversation I have had in my life ... I told you what the Pastor and I talked about and when I made the proposal, what do you think? He paused for a short silence and said, "YES!" He could not believe it, it was a super express answer from God, there was no longer any doubt, when God says that there is no discussion! He was so happy and excited, we continued talking and the duty was for him to speak with his pastor and on good terms he came to this congregation.
A week passed and he began to congregate in my church, he had a good receptivity and he adapted very well because although he does not recognize him, he is sociable, kind and friendly. Many did not understand yet about us because he had just arrived.
In those days it was the wedding of some friends, and we were both invited, I was part of the procession. That day we had a great time and we even said that we wanted to get married in that same place. When the time came for the Bride to throw the bouquet, what do you think? She touched me after doing 5 laps in the air and 2 more on the grass hahahaha. It was an epic moment in my life, that day I was determined that the bouquet was going to be mine and it was! I got it!
We were activated to formally begin our relationship, we went to the Pastors 'house to formalize and the first thing he told us was that Kleiner should go to my parents' house to ask for my hand, that he should honor me in that way. That God is a God of order and things had to be done well!
The funny part began, one Sunday he went to my parents' house ready to ask for my hand (it still makes me laugh a lot and I can't believe that he has gone through that and more at my age), he was very nervous, so much so that his beads of sweat down my face, and my nerves did nothing but laugh and laugh. The decisive moment arrived, and he began to speak, and say that he had serious intentions with me, that although we were not children, formalizing before everyone was a way of first honoring God and me. He told them that he wanted to marry me and that we were going to start the wedding preparations.
We had already gone through the second stage! It remained to announce our relationship in front of the entire congregation.
About 1 month passed when they organized in pairs for a Leadership workshop, in the first class I came up with the brilliant idea of sitting in the front row, Kleiner didn't like sitting there very much but I insisted and he agreed! The Workshop had started and the Pastor started talking about a couple who were giving good testimony and who were doing things under God's order and asked us to stop. I said: "SWALLOW ME EARTH" Hahahaha I still remember and laughter invades me.
We started with the wedding preparations, we did not have many resources, but it was a blessing process! Little by little by means of we were receiving some money we advanced and thus we went, we had 4 months of organization. We chose a Country theme - Outdoor Vintage, I had my dresses made, I wanted something simple, comfortable and practical. The dress I chose had the train removed and then it would be a cocktail dress. The hairstyle and makeup was given to me by a friend who worked in a hairdresser. He had to rent the suit.
We were married in civil law on December 15, 2017, it was a day that although I felt nervous, I did not give it the greatest weight until I reached the Civil Registry, there was no turning back, there were no regrets or doubts! When the Registrar started with the Act and began to speak and unite the word of God with the Civil Laws, I began to cry and to understand more deeply the importance of marriage in society. For that day we had nothing planned since all the funds were destined for the Ecclesiastical Ceremony.
We continue with the preparations ...
On December 22, 1 week after the Civil Marriage came the most anticipated day! That day he left early for the place where the wedding was to be held since he was in charge of decorating and then I had to go to the hairdresser to get ready and be ready on time.
The nerves and the emotion that I felt was something inexplicable, I was in the place that I longed for so much, I was about to say YES forever! When I was on my way to the altar accompanied by my mother and my father, my smile was unique, it radiated the happiness that I felt at that moment, I felt fulfilled because although many have lost faith in marriage, I was sure of the step I was taking and that my marriage was to be an example.
The Ceremony was extraordinary, I think all the guests cried hehehe! We chose the prophetic act of salt, because when you join grains of salt with others, how do you go about separating them again? And in that we really believed, that that union that we were making before God, that covenant of love was going to be so strong that nothing and no one can separate or break it. It was something very intimate between family and closest friends.
We are now 3 1/2 years married to a beautiful 2 year old baby and I can only thank God for the family I have. We are inseparable!
My husband is exceptional, he is loving, he is understandable, witty, super creative and he is the best father!
I hope you liked my love story, where God being the author did as he wanted and was placing piece by piece to make everything perfect.
Perhaps for many it is hasty, since in less than 1 year we were already at the altar receiving God's blessing, but that's how it happened, that's how everything happened and here we are, writing our story day by day, with ups and downs but together , overcoming every trial and obstacle as we promised before God ... "In good times and in bad."
My marriage is strengthened every day with the love that we both show each other, with the friendship that unites us, with fidelity and dedication, with mutual respect, with understanding and trust.
Kisses and Blessings! ❤
