‘God Brought Us Together’ Couple Born 6 Hours Apart at Same Hospital End Up Married

A man and woman who are now husband and wife were shocked to find out they were part of the other's life before they stood at the altar and said, “I do.”

Life is an odd and, at times, even a funny experience. It’s often a series of unexpected series of events with plenty of twists and turns along the way. Things can happen when and where you least expect it. Also, as one now-married couple has found out, it is a small, small world.

Joshua and Elizabeth Colbert are now husband and wife, having met on the popular dating app Hinge. Joshua, in a clip posted on YouTube, states that it was “love at first sight.”

But that doesn’t appear to be the case at all. 

After they got together, Joshua and Elizabeth learned they were in the same kindergarten class in Blaine, Minnesota. The video shows clips of the two of them as children walking during their kindergarten graduation. At one point during the ceremony, Elizabeth’s mother inadvertently zooms her camera in on Joshua. 

However, that is not the only place where their pasts intersect.

Joshua and Elizabeth share the same birthday. They were born in the same hospital, a little more than six hours apart. Joshua is the older of the two of them.

“So, we found our birth certificates, and we were born, same doctor delivered us,” Joshua said. 

It's remarkable that Joshua and Elizabeth’s lives have crossed paths so much. In fact, Joshua believes that the two of them coming together and getting married is something only God could have done.

“We believe that God brought us together,” Joshua said.

Before the clip ends, viewers learn that Joshua and Elizabeth will now celebrate their wedding anniversary and birthdays on the same day. They tied the knot on their 35th birthdays.

Genesis 2:24 “Therefore a man will leave his father and his mother, and will join with his wife, and they will be one flesh.”
