There is a power in love that defies limitation. It is not the kind of power that demands attention or shouts its strength from mountaintops. Instead, it is the quiet, steady power of two lives joined by God, standing shoulder to shoulder, hand in hand, determined to walk through every valley and climb every mountain together. When I think of us, I cannot help but feel this truth deeply—we are unlimited together. Not because of our own strength, but because of the One who has written our story and the love He has poured into our lives.
From the very beginning, it was no accident. Our meeting, our connection, the way our hearts grew intertwined—it was always part of something greater. God saw the storms we would face. He knew the weight that life would bring, the struggles we could not foresee, and He wove us together so that we would not carry them alone. Where one of us falters, the other rises. Where one is weary, the other speaks courage. And where both of us feel weak, God Himself stands as our anchor, reminding us that His strength is made perfect in our weakness.
Together, we have faced trials that at times felt insurmountable. The reality of Tim’s seizures, the uncertainty they bring, the long nights filled with fear and the weary days filled with questions—these are battles that could easily leave us broken. But time and again, I see the way our love holds, the way our faith stretches beyond what we can see, and I know we are not bound by these struggles. We are not defined by them. Instead, they become part of the canvas where God paints His grace and endurance into our story.
Tim dreams the way we planned them, and though life has sometimes delayed or altered those dreams, we hold fast to them. Because dreams are not just about circumstances—they are about hope. And hope is something that cannot be taken from us. When we walk in tandem, carrying each other’s burdens, we discover a strength that surprises us. What once looked impossible becomes possible, not because it suddenly grew easy, but because we chose not to give up. We chose to believe that even in the struggle, there is beauty. Even in the fight, there is victory.
There are moments when I am reminded of Ecclesiastes 4:12: “Though one may be overpowered, two can defend themselves. A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.” That is who we are—two lives, intertwined, held firmly by the unbreakable strand of God’s presence. Alone, we might stumble. But together, wrapped in His love, we are strong. That strength is not flashy or loud. It shows up in the quiet ways: in the hand held during a seizure, in the whispered prayers in the night, in the choice to keep moving forward when fear tempts us to stop.
And so, when I say we are unlimited, I do not mean that life will always be easy, or that every dream will unfold exactly as we imagined. Instead, I mean that together, there is no fight we cannot face. There is no storm that can strip us of our love. There is no trial that can silence the faith that God has planted within us. Unlimited means that our love stretches beyond circumstance, because it is anchored in a God who has no limits.
There is such hope in knowing that love is not an accident but a calling. We are not here by chance. We were placed in one another’s lives to be companions on the journey, not only for the joyful days but also for the days of deep struggle. And what a gift that is—that when life feels too heavy for one, there is another to help carry it. What a blessing that God knew I would need you, and you would need me, and that together we would be stronger, braver, and more steadfast than we could ever be apart.
So, yes—we are unlimited together. Not because we avoid pain, but because we walk through it with hope. Not because we have all the answers, but because we trust the One who does. Not because our love is perfect, but because it is grounded in a perfect God who continually strengthens and sustains us.
The world may see limitations in our journey, but I see something else entirely. I see resilience. I see beauty rising from ashes. I see two lives bound together in love and faith, refusing to let go, refusing to give up, and choosing again and again to believe that God’s plan is greater than anything we could imagine. That is what makes us unlimited. And with Him guiding us, there truly is no fight we cannot win.
