The Love of My Life

This is the LOVE of my life!  If you have read my previous entry you would have noted that we had a somewhat scary start.  Our relationship seemed to be star-crossed before it even began!  My rules and plans were thrown out the window the moment he stepped through the door to my heart and I let go trusting that God will guid us forward.  With every fiber of my being I believed that the Lord would transform that lost boy into a wise and gentle leader who would surpass me spiritually and guide our relationship.  I believe that my faith, his enormous heart and and our lack of doubt was the reason for how quickly the process unraveled!

The first thing I did before I accepted to be his girlfriend was place the condition that he had to ask my family's permission.  It was a risk to take with this notorious bad boy who refused to date a girl from church because of his lack of commitment; but it was the most important decision that I would make (that any serious girl should make) at the first bloom of our relationship.  If a guy knows that you are loved, valued and protected he will respect his commitment to you ten times more than if you were on your own.

I don't believe that we would have made it if we weren't under the caring and watchful eye of my family.   We were arguing all the time! Heavy phone calls, dramatic text messages and plenty of standoffs.  He had a hard time letting go of his past and assimilating to christian lifestyle.  I was inexperienced, impatient and naive to gently guiding a man. Our family held us together through the rough beginning until our love blossomed enough to face the storms on our own.

This man matured quickly and would be there through the diagnosis and treatment of my benign tumor, the deaths of the two people that I loved most in this world, my grandparents whom I lived with and tended to for years.  I had always prayed to the Lord that I would not be alone when that time came.  My grandparents had a great love & enormous faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. Their love was so exceptional that they died just a few months apart.

In a little less than two years we were married!  We both had the same luck.  He was carless at the same times that I would be.  We both went back to college that the same time, jobless at the same time and started our current employment at the same time (days after our wedding).  It was our God that blessed us so that we were able to strengthen our character and mature together!

Right now my husband is the industrial engineer, along side of a handful of doctors, handling this country's largest hospital receive American and international accreditation.  He works twelve minutes away from our apartment and we live three minutes away from our church!

This man is my best friend, my lover, my leader, my comfort, my guardian, my nutritionist, my psychologist, my inspiration, my everything!!!
