Marriage testimony

Submitting to His will and let him take over our life and His will is perfect in His time

When I was in my final year of my pg my family started to keenly search for a life partner for me. I was very playful didn't give full attention to it. I came across two proposals in August 2012 but my mom kept telling to move with the other one which we didn't even think of. I told my mom to put a pause to the search and let me complete my studies but my mother didn't. She kept doing it without my knowledge.  Once she called and told in December 2012 to send biodata to a particular ID. I said no. My friend insisted me to obey my mom. I did without an interest. Before typing I prayed God give me the wisdom to type so that the one whom you have kept for me be touched by my biodata. I sent my biodata.  And my mom kept telling the proposal likes your biodata and I kept postponing.

During my Christmas vacation my sister was advising me to get married soon and I scolded her pointing to her age when she got married. She told parents have become old now not like her days. And I received another proposal and I rejected it along with my dad citing reasons he was working in abroad. My sister yelled at me I told see dad doesn't like she told you are selfish to fulfill your dreams. I didn't bother. The abroad proposal got fixed for my cousin and my mom and sister asked how are you going to attend her wedding. I said I don't care. And after her wedding my entire family shouted at me and I came back home from native and fasted and prayed for a week. I finally prayed Lord if your will is in the list of the qualifications which I said I don't want, I accept. Not my will let yours be done.

N the same proposal of August 2012 I got married. I prayed to God I Atleast should be  engaged or my wedding be fixed at the time of my convocation and exactly on the day of my convocation when I stepped in I got the confirmation call. My mom just asked if it's God's will what you would do and it was His will.

Only God knows what's perfect for us.we ourselves don't know what is best for us. I learnt this.  The point is we never had video call nor did we meet each other before fixing , we just had a talk over the phone in a call and prayed and we got the confirmation verses and accepted. Everyone in my family and even friends where shocked that it was me who accepted without even seeing the proposal directly.

Even today it's like a dream. I know God provided me with a best friend and a companion all through my life. All Glory to God. He is mindful of us.
