How do you know…….
I find it hard to believe that I would ever be totally convinced only knowing some things about someone and having only interacted via the limited amount of time spent in broken communication via the internet transmitting distorted images and garbled messages
so what is the motivation and inner prodding to continue………..belief…… hope…….yes but the most powerful influence is faith
faith that God wants me to have a successful Godly relationship….. that he wants me share His Gifts
That this person has a personal perspective and wisdom that will open new eyes and mental doors for me …. And that I may do the same for her
We are not blind….. we are not perfect…. But most importantly we want to love and be loved
we walk in faith

Your words resonate deeply with me.
I don’t claim certainty, and I don’t ignore the limits of distance or imperfect communication.
What I choose is faith—the same faith you speak of.
Faith that God can work even through incomplete moments and unfamiliar paths.
Faith that He reveals people not all at once, but in layers, in time, and with purpose.
I believe connection rooted in God isn’t rushed by proof but guided by trust.
Like you, I am not blind, and I know I am not perfect.
But I desire to love and to be loved in a way that honors Him.
If God is writing this story, then I am willing to walk forward with humility, patience, and faith—
allowing Him to shape both of us, and whatever this may become.
