I didnt believe that Jesus could be God and be the son of God. It didnt make any sense to me.

So for just about all of my childhood I was non-religious. I believed that there was a God deep down in my heart, I just hadnt found the Truth yet. But when I was in 10th grade I took a class called Religion and Human Culture. I still wasnt much in to religion but the culture part caught my eye. Well, I took the class and my teacher said he didnt know much about other religions (he was Christian) but he would try to get us some basic info.

We had a book filled with info from other religions, Islam was one of those religions. I found all of the religions interesting but Islam really stuck in my mind. I ended up not passing the class due to too many absences. So, I retook the class in 11th grade. It was a little different because a different teacher taught it but I still loved it. Islam went even deeper into my heart even though I really didnt know that at the time. I started going to the school library reading about Islam.

But when I got into 12th grade for some reason I stopped researching. Maybe it was the excitement of it being my last year, who knows? But Islam was still there in my heart. After high school was out, that summer I met my husband. We met at a wedding reception that neither of us had planned on going to. I had twisted my ankle that day and he had just got back from New York. But we both went anyway. I saw him and thought he was fine :o) We kept looking at each other off and on.

He came over to ask my friend to dance, she declined. He asked me and I declined too... I thought he was interested in my friend. Anyways, he did come back over again and ask me to dance, I accepted. After we danced we sat down and started talking. He asked me what religion I was, I said I didnt have one but I was interested in Islam and had been studying. He said he was doing the same! From that day on we have been together, over 9 years! I was 18 when we met. Anyways.

We ended up moving to Michigan because he got transferred there from his job.
