@GuntherEagleman I don’t drink coffee at night, but we love celebrating 250 years of America!

The day before our meeting, Ben had actually seen me riding my bike with my dog in our small town.

He wondered who this woman was that he’d never met. He was driving the same direction, stopped at a stop sign, and watched me go into my salon — so he figured out who I was.

Then the very next day, I texted him completely out of the blue asking to meet for counseling… he was very surprised! 😂
God was setting things up in ways we couldn’t see.

Have you ever had God connect the dots in funny ways? Drop a ❤️ if so!

Ben replied & we scheduled a time to meet at his building for a consultation.

I was killing time before our appointment when I got in a 🚲bicycle wreck on the way there. I showed up bloody & a complete mess on my bike.

When Ben came out to greet me, he smiled warmly & introduced himself. I was so embarrassed — I hadn’t realized how attractive he was! I quickly told him I’d been in an accident. He immediately noticed the blood & offered to help me.
This was not how I pictured our first meeting going 😂

Good night from New York City!

@ForgetfuP @trixxrforkidz @AMAZlNGNATURE I’m avoiding them all!

Have you ever misunderstood what God was doing at first? Drop a 🙏 if that’s ever been you.

After hearing Ben’s name so many times, I looked him up on Facebook. His profile picture was of his little daughter — not himself. I still didn’t know his age or what he looked like, but I learned he was a pastor and counselor. So I figured God was telling me I needed pastoral counseling.
I messaged him to ask if he’d meet with me as a counselor.

Little did I know… God had something completely different in mind. ☺️

Meeting my husband wasn’t on my radar. I had just surrendered my whole life to God — my plans, my fears, my need to control my life.
A few weeks later, I kept hearing one name in random conversations. After several people brought up Ben Kolars, I walked into a gathering I almost skipped…
There I sat across from a woman I’d never met. The first words out of her mouth were: “Hello, do you happen to know Ben Kolars?”
It was so strange it finally got my attention. So I looked him up on Facebook…
Have you ever had a moment where you knew God was up to something? Drop a ❤️ if you have.

Crazy story: Walked into Waldorf Astoria hotel (formerly the post office that trump bought and refurbished) to see it. We both had our American dream shirts on and Mark Matson came up to us to talk. What are the odds?

My husband is a counselor and a pastor. Together we’ve learned that real love isn’t just butterflies and romance — it’s choosing each other every day while serving God and people. Our story isn’t perfect, but it’s real. And God has used every chapter of it for His glory. If you’re married or hoping to be, this account is for you too. #RealLove

I’m a wife, mom, pastor’s wife, worship leader, and business owner. My days are full running our salon, Airbnb, and helping lead our church that we built inside an old elementary school we’re still remodeling. But the most important thing about me is that I love Jesus and I love sharing real stories about how He shows up in everyday life. If you love authentic faith and real-life testimonies, you’re in the right place.

Day 2 of our story: The day I met my husband, I had no idea God was about to change my entire life. What started as a normal day turned into a divine appointment I’ll never forget. Want to hear how it happened? Drop a ❤️ below if you want part 2 tomorrow.
