Today was an amazing day filled with many obstacles and rich blessings from the Lord. Yesterday Tyrell told me he wanted to take me on a date but he didn't want to tell me where to meet him, he wanted me to figure it out. The Hint was "Meet me somewhere special, it can be dark, it can be scary, but just remember that Seriah was talked about here." When I heard this, I immediately thought of the woods in his old neighborhood. This morning Tyrell woke me up saying he couldn't wait to see me. On my way to this special spot, Tyrell left pink notes sharing his love for me on electric poles and just random things outside so I had to keep an eye out for the pink slips. Finally when I made it to the woods, I walk in and found a gift with my name on it with directions not to open it and to leave the woods for he wasn't there. I continued walking and found another pink slip at a playground and it said to look for him. I had no idea where he was. Finally after looking around I found him! He was so happy to see me. Still confused about what's going on we sat down and the gift he had made for me was a book with verses to help me in my walk with the Lord. I read each page out loud and when I got to the last page it said
"DO NOT FEAR, OBEY THE LORD, TRUST IN HIS PROMISES, AND HE WILL BRING THEM TO PASS. WALK INTO HIS OCEANS WITH TOTAL ABANDON. DROWN IN HIS LOVE WITH NO RESERVATION."
I'm reading this and I'm thinking it's another verse when I look to see where it says that in the bible I saw
"Marie-Marthe will you waste your life with me?" referring to the song "I will waste my life" by Misty Edwards
And I started screaming, not believing what was taking place. He got down on one knee as I was screaming in disbelief and I said YES!!!! ^_^ I was soooo happy, I started tearing up. Our wedding is in 9 days and he labored and still blessed me with a beautiful engagement ring. God is sooo good and I am so thankful for God's provision. He later took me out to eat and spent the day with me until I had to leave for work =)
