Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
“Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.”—1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NLT
A/N: Anyone can read this; I am just writing this with a Christian woman follower in mind. Since our God is a good God, I wanted to actually post something even with my writer's block, because He has answered one of the many prayers I wrote down and I am forever grateful! So, I am giving God the glory now (and forever) while tomorrow, I live out the blessing God has given me. Stay blessed, God has not forgotten you!!

Kento is praying to the One True God, as he always does. He prays for the strength of all God's people, he prays for the strength of all jujutsu sorcerers, and he prays for his future wife, whom he has yet to meet. A few months ago, while Kento was praying to God about his future wife, he realized that he first needed to be a better man of God, someone who can support and provide for his wife. He looks down at his watch. "10:15 am" he says out loud to himself. Last night he had a dream from God saying he would meet his future wife while he went out to his favorite pastry shop. Kento knows better than to disobey God or try to get out of the things God has called him to do, yet he cannot stop this light feeling in his spirit. It's hard to put into words, but he feels a sense of overwhelming joy and nerves.
Putting on his usual tan suit jacket, Kento looks into the mirror once more to make sure his hair is styled neatly as he always has it. 'Should I buy flowers,' he thought to himself. Afterall, today is a very important day and he feels that it is best to make a good impression. "Hmm. One more prayer never hurts," Kento said as he put down his wallet and prepares his heart, mind, and soul for prayer. "Dear Heavenly Father, I pray that You and You alone order my steps as I go out today. I have not forgotten the dream you gave me last night Lord, and I pray that you guide me into doing what is needed to interact with her. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen." Kento grabs his wallet, puts on his dress shoes once he reaches the door, and locks the door to his home.
The walk to his favorite pantry was ten minutes away. On the way there Kento spots a lot of stores that he was sure he could by flowers from. He tried not to overthink the idea. Afterall, God has not spoken to him yet. And maybe his future wife needs a certain flower to know that they are a match by God, or maybe something even more dire, she could be allergic to the flowers he got. Oh, that's a no-no. Taking deep breaths, Kento replays the dream he had, he walked into the pastry shop in his normal jujutsu outfit, he got his regular order, he sits down, and God tells him that the most beautiful woman he has ever seen is his future wife. Kento starts to subconsciously pray that there is only one woman in the shop so his wife would be the only woman he saw there.
The pastry shop is in Kento's vision now. He takes slightly faster strides than what he was doing already until he is a few steps in front of the building. When he reaches the door, he stops and lets out a breath he did not know he was holding. Why was he even nervous, he goes here so often that he is a regular. He considers this place as a safe spot away from all the chaos (mainly Gojo) and a mini vacation that he can enjoy until the day he goes off to Malaysia. Kento gets out of his head when he sees a woman approach the door, he is currently just standing in front of. Without thinking, he holds the door open for her with a polite smile. The woman thanks him and Kento freezes. He thinks 'what if that is her? But I can't just ask for her number out of the blue. And what if she saw me standing here zoning out? Well, at least she has a good memory of someone holding the door for her.' Slightly disappointed Kento makes his way to the counter.
"Good morning" Kento says to the worker. "Hello Mr. Nanami!" The worker smiled. "Safe to assume that you are having your regular?" "That's correct." Kento says returning the smile to the worker. "Y'know Mr. Nanami, a lot of people have been coming in and paying for the next customer after them. You just missed the morning rush, but the person in front of you wanted to pay for your meal, if you would like to accept it." Kento is shocked to this information, was that lady really the woman God had for him, and Kento missed his opportunity? He didn't even say anything or get a look at her face. This adds more salt to his wound and the fiery spirit in his heart from early that morning started to dim more and more. "Ah. How sweet of them, but I would like to pay for my regular order today. In fact, I wouldn't mind giving you some extra money so it can be forwarded to a bigger order than mine," Kento says as he pulled out cash from his wallet. "That's Mr. Nanami for you, always humble and thoughtful for all" the worker beams in delight.
After paying for his order, Kento made his way to his normal table in the corner far away from the windows in case a special case of Gojo happens to find him. Kento made sure to look around to see if there were any women still in the store and to his surprise, he saw a few women in the store. As Kento sat down, prayed and gave thanks to God for his meal, and ate his bread. He thinks back to the woman he held the door open for. The fact that he never got a look at the woman's face and his spirit did not react at all either, in all honesty bothered him. It's so difficult for him to figure out which woman is the one meant for him. But the one mistake he would not do again is not look at the women's faces. Kento does not have a preference, and he knows that all God's children are beautiful, and all the women who are in the store with him are beautiful in their own right. Some women were in a group of only women, others are in a group with men and women, he does not know how he could approach any of these women. They all have company and he does not want to impose.
With all of these thoughts rushing through his mind, he ends up eating his food faster than normal. Kento knows that God will guide his footsteps and help him find peace. Kento takes this time to clean off his dining area and stay still, knowing God is with him at all times. Kento prays one last time in the shop. "God, I know You told me that I would meet my future wife in this shop, and I am sorry for overthinking this and assuming you meant today, because I had the dream last night and the plan to go to the shop today. I will never forget what You and You alone do for Your people and how You bless our every second of life. Thank You, Lord, for removing Satoru Gojo from my day and for my surprisingly peaceful day today. In the name of Jesus Christ, I pray, Amen."
Kento stood up, threw his trash away, and started to think what bible chapter he should read when he gets back home. As he approaches to the door, Kento was looking down at his pants, patting the pockets on his suit and pants to look for his house key. He found his key in his pants as he looked down at the floor he notices he was at the door. He raised his hand to reach for the handle before he looks up, he closes his hand on what he thought would be the door handle, but instead he is holding someone's hand. Shocked, Kento bolts his head up to see the door he was trying to reach for closing behind a woman. The woman returns the shocked expression she has and Kento... His pupils dilate; his heartbeat increases and his breathing stops. He cannot believe how beautiful- no ethereal this woman is. The woman who's extremely soft hand is still in his. Wait a minute. Kento quickly releases her hand from his grasp. "I am so sorry ma'am! I should have looked where I was reaching. I thought I was closer to the door than I truly was," Kento explains with sincerity and a hint of fondness. The ethereal woman let's out a beautifully cheeky giggle and says "you have nothing to worry about! We both need to pay more attention huh?" She jokes, flashing Kento a stunning smile. Kento feels his spirit light up at the woman. From her honey-like voice, her beautiful face, the way she's dressed, and her sweet perfume, nothing about this woman didn't scream 'future wife'.
"My name is Kento Nanami. I'll pay for your order as an apology for grabbing your hand." "Nonsense, there is no need for your generosity! But, since you look as though you are about to insist, I would like to throw out that I am a woman of God, and I do not want just any man taking care of me, even for something as a meal. Ideally, I want my future husband to take of me." "Then let me take you out. God told me that I was going to meet my future wife here, and there is no doubt in my mind that is you." Kento says with a confident smile. God never breaks His promises, even when we think He would. "Wait! Are you serious?" The woman asked in a serious tone. "God told me 'a man in a tan suit would take my hand and take me out on a date. 'And that he... 'he would be the man I prayed for.'" Both the woman and Kento stared at each other longingly, the woman's face softens while looking at Kento. Kento breaks the small moment of silence by offering to take her on a bible study date in a public area that she is comfortable with, and to his delight, she agrees. After exchanging contact information, Kento moves out of her way and told her to "have a blessed day" and the woman smiled and told him, "I already am".
As the two go their separate ways, the woman walks up to the counter, asking for her usual order, and as she gets ready to pay, the worker tells her that the man she was talking to paid for her order. The woman is shocked, and her face grew slightly warmer as she looked down. God really listened to every detail she prayed about for her future husband. A Godly man who is humble, honest, tall, handsome, has light hair, and is thoughtful without meaning to be.
Fun fact! This was going to be a story for someone I wanted to do in demon slayer, but my draft got erased... Σ(°△° ꪱꪱꪱ) So, I took what I remembered and made it into a Nanami fanfic because I was annoyed and I thought it would be better to change the whole anime T^T.
Yes, this was extremely rushed, I will write better in my future fics! Regardless, I hope you enjoyed my first fanfiction of many!

Jesus loves you so much he died on the cross for you, and that’s the biggest form of love anyone will ever gift you. He gave us freedom and only through him we can be healed.
So if today you find yourself doubting that you sinned to much or drifted to far away; just remember that God is right next to you and he loves you so much he sent his only son to earth to free us from sin.
Love is how His kingdom comes on Earth as it is in Heaven.”
“But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved.” Ephesians 2:4-5
