      If she had told me she was 20, just by looking at her, I would not have batted an eyelid!! Obviously when she starts speaking, it's clear she's mature but 39?! And she seems like such a lovely person!!

      mskinalenee yup!!! And sometimes I wonder about age because IDK when everything will happen although I know it will happen, but thus encouraged me to give my age and all concerns to God, and to not worry because the way he’s bringing people together you could never predict. Thanks for this!!!!! I’m only 31, but I think about these things because I don’t want to have child birth complications and all 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 God can do it!

    Ashley, please keep these videos coming! This episode definitely blessed me. When he said they dated, went ring shopping, got engaged and married within 7 months I was like “yesss, this man pursued and wasted no time!”, and nine years younger! This is a prime example of being open and trusting God to give you HIS best for you. Such a beautiful couple💕. Thank you Ashley for sharing this!

    Ashley ; this was very informative, as a single women who is waiting (abstinent ) and 35 I find it hard to find people to relate to especially this side I live in (South Africa) it's hard but I'm willing to do it for my sake and future generations that are coming after me (breaking this generational curse)

      Hey also from South Africa and nothing hurts like being with a person and building a family and it at the end have it not work out, but I had to understand that God was never in the relationship to begin with so God blocked it for me. But I still believe in love and next time God will choose and God will be a part of the relationship and love my son too

    I love their journey, they’re a great example of pursuing God and letting Him write your love story!💖 Plus the age difference I can relate to because I’ve been pursued recently by guys younger than me (about the same age gap😅). Lol, ladies let God surprise you and bring you His best when you wait on Him.👑✨💖
