Sometimes in life, some things are too strange and too strong to be mere coincidences. Things that can often be easily put out of your mind but that may be the way God maneuvers the ONE into your life. God may be leading you there now through what seems like a random act to meet the person he has ordained for you. Here is our story. In 2017, Houston Methodist Hospital held a leadership workshop in which we met for the first time. A workshop that Damonique was scheduled to attend several times previously but somehow was interrupted by some circumstance. A hurricane and a girls’ trip, later Damonique had finally been able to attend the workshop in which God intended her to. During one of the activities at the workshop, we were placed in the same group and decided to talk while the others in the group did the work. 😊 A few days later, we went on our first date. That date led to friendship, happiness, and a love that created a lifetime bond. Now we are ready to say I do on September 18, 2021.... “When the time is right, I, The Lord, will make it happen.” Isaiah 60:22
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 never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
