Heartbreak, a breakup, a long waiting season, and a lot of trusting God.
I’m sitting down with my best friend Alyssa to interview her about her
unexpected love story. I've know Alyssa from all the way back to my LA
days. Alyssa shares her incredible love story with her fiancé, Regan.
What makes their story so powerful is that it wasn’t a straight path.
Alyssa and Reagan met at church and dated for several months before
realizing the relationship wasn’t healthy at the time. Even though they
loved each other, they chose to walk away. During the year they were
apart, Alyssa focused on seeking the Lord through prayer, fasting,
journaling, and community—even when it was painful. Eventually, God
redeems it. Listen for the full story!
This episode is a reminder that God’s timing is different from ours, but
when we surrender our relationships to Him, He can redeem and restore
in ways we never expected.
