Former Miss USA Nia Sanchez and her husband, Daniel Booko, recently discussed what it looks like to find and build a God-fearing relationship. In a recent YouTube video, the couple responded to a fan who asked, \u201cAs a single Christian woman, how do we find a godly man in today\u2019s society?\u201d Sanchez began, \u201cAs a single Christian woman, which I am not, but I have been, my best advice is to literally just pursue God wholeheartedly, and when you\u2019re on the path of pursuing God, the right man will happen to join you on the path. That\u2019s really how it ended up working for us.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sanchez remembered that she got to the point where she wasn\u2019t \u201clooking for me anymore.\u201d She said, \u201cIf God brings the right one into my life, I\u2019ll be ready for it. I got myself ready first. I was pursuing God and my relationship with God and who I wanted to be in God.\u201d For her and her husband, it was about patience and trusting in God\u2019s timing. She said, \u201cEverything else kind of fell into place, and we met each other at church. Really, a lot of it is the patience game and just pursuing a relationship with God, and then he will put the man in your life at the right time because Daniel and I always say, like, if we had met each other six months earlier, we wouldn\u2019t have been ready for each other. It\u2019s all God\u2019s timing.\u201d<\/p>\n

The couple share three kids. In a recent Easter\u00a0post<\/a>, Sanchez talked about what it looks like to parent a gaggle of little ones. In her caption, she wrote, \u201cEmbracing my wild mom life era. We\u2019ve always gotten the cutest pics with Asher. But getting all 3 to look cute is impossible without photoshop.\u201d She added, \u201cThis season of life is beyond exhausting and takes EVERYTHING out of me. But I wouldn\u2019t trade it for the world. These moments with my children while they are so little are precious to me.\u201d Sanchez recently sat down with fellow pageant queen Kristen Dalton Wolfe to discuss how they lean on their faith while competing.<\/p>\n
