Alaska and Maine couldn’t be farther apart. So I was skeptical when my friend suggested I chat online with Sabrina, a woman she knew in Juneau, Alaska.
But I sent Sabrina a friend request on Facebook and she accepted. I checked out the pictures on her page. She had cerebral palsy like me, and a huge smile.
“Where was this photo taken?” I asked her, using my voice recognition software. Cerebral palsy can make typing difficult. “An art competition,” she answered. “I love to draw and paint.”
“Me too!” I said. Over the next few months, we got to know each other. Sabrina told me about mentoring students with disabilities. “I teach Sunday school,” I told her.
“God is very important to me too,” she said. That did it. Sabrina just might be the girl for me, I thought. The 4,000 miles between us didn’t seem to matter anymore.
This May, we’ll be married, and we’ll start a life together in Juneau. A friend and the Internet brought us together, but Sabrina and I know angels made the love connection.
