Let me tell you the story of how God brought two lost souls together.
I was a serious drug addict living in the slums and used to have parties at my apartment just about every night to be honest. There were some pretty young girls that would stop by, still in high school who came from broken homes mostly. One of them ended up being my wife and the love of my life.
She was beautiful, and very modest considering how extremely beautiful she was. I was just a poor truck driver who happened to have a place to hang out in my early twenties. I never dreamed that we would end up together as husband and wife but God had a plan.
I crossed her off as probably ending up the wife of a doctor or something, not for a loser like me. My life progressed into a saving relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ and I went off to college, not knowing what happened to her.
A few years later we crossed paths at an open-mic night at a local bar, I play guitar and sing. She invited me to her apartment to pick up an apple pie she was going to make me to bring back to college. I almost didn't go.
Ya see, I was so damaged by the world, so lied to, that I didn't think I would ever find a girl. I thought that she was just feeling sorry for me.
In the end, I asked her out and the rest is history. We have been married for 13 years now and I love her more now than I ever have.
But here's the thing. I was addicted to pornography from, well, the first time I was exposed to it, at age 6. I had helped a friend move one day and he offered me his entire collection of **** magazines as payment. Well, I was invited to go to the open mic night to play and sing but wasn't planning on going. Instead I thought I'd spend the night going through the porn that had been so graciously granted me. Something really bothered me that night and I ended up driving down to a local supermarket and dumping the load of filth my "friend" gave me into a dumpster. I went to the open mic night in spite of myself.
That was the night that I was reunited with my friend who ultimately became my wife. God at work.
I was a believer, but still held onto sin. When I gave up that sin, my prayers were answered. Today, I am a happiliy married man who has not returned to the sin of lust Thanks be to God.
Previous to all of this I had been praying to God to help me find a wife. I was lonely. I was close to suicidal. He heard my prayers and came to my rescue. Today, years later, I am still very much in love with my wife, thanks be to God!!
To be honest, I'm kind of embarrassed to give you all this testimony but I think it's for the best. I'm sure I'm not the only one to be in this kind of situation. The world today makes it so hard. Have faith in Jesus, He hears you. He knows what you need AND what is best for you. Praise the Lord Jesus Christ!
