My God, My Love and My Faith

Recently I was granted a peek into the awesome, perfect will of God for my Life.

On Sunday July 26th, 2009 at about 2 am, I posed one of the most important questions of my Life, to my girlfriend. On a mid-summer morning, before the sun was awake, in front of this beautiful city called San Diego, on a majestic mountain-top, draped with the precious cross of calvary, before God and all of Heaven, I asked Racquel Fierro to be my wife. Nervous with every cell in my body twitching, anxious with every thought in my mind bursting into infinite directions, but confident, with every word falling gently from my mouth to her ears.

And she said YES.

And what was that "peek into the awesome, perfect will" I spoke of granted to me from God? It was a promise. A glimpse. But a taste of the vision my God granted to me back when I first laid eyes on this woman. That's the one. That was all that I heard in my heart from a small, still voice from above. And the reason I can declare it as God's will for my Life is due to the fact that once I realized this person was brought to me, and me to her, by God, I knew I HAD to place my hopes, dreams and any aspirations I had with this woman, into Jesus' hands.

Not only did I have to trust God brought her to me, but I had to realize and admit, "I can't be with this woman, living sooo far away from me, on my own." I MUST put this relationship into The Lord's hands, and TRUST that He KNOWS what is BEST for my Life! I MUST believe God will work it all out, if it is His will, He WILL keep my best interests in mind.

So that's what I did.

And 6 months and 5 days later, with unfailing love and an enduring patience in the face of overwhelming circumstances, I took a step of Faith. That if God has broughten us THIS far, WHY WOULD IT BE ANY DIFFERENT FROM HERE ON? I believed this, and as God as my witness, Heaven, and ALL of San Diego, I asked her to marry me. No ring. No crazy, elaborate lights or stunts. Just my God, my love, and my Faith.
