Signs that I asked God - How I met my husband?

I was so tired of searching and waiting for the right man to come into my life. I dated but it seemed that I could not find my match. I was always looking for something that they do not have. There was one that I dated, so nice but still something is missing. I wanted someone who is smart. I found one that is smart and yet not the one for me. I read a lot of books about finding true love. But seems like love couldn't find me. Was I in the wrong place or wrong time? Was there anything wrong with me? I kept asking myself those questions? How could some people find their partner? I could I not find mine? I kind of stopped searching for awhile. When one day, I was watching OPRAH. And it just struck me when she said..."if you want something. Be very very specific. Do not say I want a lot of money. Or don't say I want a car. You have to say I want to have 1 million dollars. I want a Mercedes Benz. You have to list down the things that you want to get." Then, I started writing the things that I want in a man. Even tiny details about what I want. That is how I talked or asked God about my husband. I was very detailed. Here are my list:

I want him to be smart.
I want him to be religious.
I want him to be from DLSU or ATENEO.
I want him to have nice toes.
I want him to be from a good family.
I want him to be wearing a pair of shoes that is very clean. EVEN the BOTTOM of his shoes.

If he is the right man for me. He will ask me to go to church with him.

Then, I met my future husband. I did not know at first. But when I got to know him more. Everything started to match the things that I asked God and him.
First, I asked God that he'd be smart. Well, my future husband was a Valedictorian in high school. And a scholar in his Graduate Studies.
Second, I wanted him to be religious. Ladies and gentlemen, my future husband was a seminarian from First year high school to his Freshman in College.
Third, I wanted him to be from DLSU. Yup, he is from DLSU.
Forth, nice toes? You bet!!!!
Fifth, come from a good family. His family is known in his hometown.
Sixth,. Yes. he did asked me to go to church with him. He is hte only one that did.
Seventh. The very first time that we started talking. I notice his shoes was very clean. And when he lifted his foot!!! I was shocked! It was clean. As if he never stepped on land. People, later, i told to him about the shoes. And he told me that he just bought those shoes that same day he visited me. Never used it til that day. No wonder.
These are signs i asked God. I never told a soul about it. But they all came true. We started dating and I asked for one more. I guess not a sign but guidance. I prayed to him that once we started talking about exclusive dating we would go to St. Claire in Katipunan to pray over our relationship. Again, I nver told anyone about it. On February 2. We decided to be exclusive. As soon as he dropped me off at my place. He called me and invited me to go to St. Claire to pray for our relationship. CAn you believe that? These are not coincidence. These are signs or let us say answered prayers from God. Thank you Lord.
We are now 5 years married.
