We’re getting married!

When we first met, we were in the place where you will consistently find us at any given moment, church. I will never forget the first time I saw Cassie, she was leading worship on a Sunday morning in June 2015. The anointing that flowed when she sung was undeniable, but I also could hear an underlying tone in her voice as she sung. An underlying tone of breaking, trials and heartache, but ultimately I could hear the appreciation to God with every word that parted her lips. Our first interaction actually resulted in her yelling at me. For those that know me, they would ask me "What did you do now?". But this time, it wasn't me. I will just say this, we are both 2 competitive individuals and we were not good teammates to each other on that particular day! From there we would hang out with friends in group settings and I noticed from afar that there was more to her than what she allowed herself to reveal. Most know her from being a powerful voice that can sing with such conviction that will bring anyone to tears. I listened past the voice and could hear what she was not saying. I knew that there was more to her than just singing. We began to date (court) almost 2 years after we first met each other. Our relationship has been filled with such growth and love. During our friends stage, I found out that I actually like this woman! She was someone that I enjoyed spending time with (and still enjoy spending time with). When I'm with her, I forget about the problems that I had earlier that day or the issues of life that would consume my thoughts. She adds joy and blessings to my life and not sorrow. In our relationship, we have had disagreements and a couple of arguments which looking back now...I'm glad that we had them. If we did not have those tough times, we would not have an opportunity to grow. I am greatly encouraged by how selfless and driven she is. God has led me to find my good thing and I will not let go. #LoveIsRich

I am so very grateful for our story! We started in laughter, in friendship and somewhat me yelling at him. I must admit that I am very competitive especially when it comes to volleyball. Ron, don’t act like you aren’t competitive either. Anyways! He told you all honesty how we met. I just would like to brag on him for a minute. Many people didn’t even know we were dating for a while. So, you may not know who he is. He is such a man of great character and integrity. He loves selflessly. He cherishes his family. He values life in all things. He’s persistent in pursing God and me. He’s full of faith to believe the impossible. He trust God with his whole heart! He is constantly found serving and giving of himself. He truly honors God and His people.I’m sharing this because this is the man in whom I fell in love with. I fell in love with his character! I can’t forget...he’s actually really funny too. (He will be shocked that I’m admitting this) Soooooooo, I don’t necessarily ask when sharing with Ron. We were out eating one time and he got sweet tea and I got water. I wanted to just a sip of his tea, so I reached over and just took a sip...I’m sure to him it was more than a sip. He went back to get a refill of what I thought was sweet tea...of course I went in for another sip and realized that this joker filled it with unsweetened tea because I was drinking all of his drink. He definitely thinks quick on his feet when getting back at me. Hahaha! We’re in this together...it’s more than marriage, it’s destiny! We’re stepping into what God has ordained for our lives! Love you, Babe! Thank you so much family and friends! We can’t wait to see you all! #LoveIsRich
