Rob & Keisha’s Engagement

I’ve received this link about 3 times in the last couple of days so I finally opened it to see what all of the fuss is about.

According to the email, “..he rented out 10 rooms in the Ritz Carlton in buckhead and invited about 50-60 people to be there for this special night…Keisha had to go from room to room and in each room were people who were special to them….his boys…her girls…her Bible Study group….his parents…her parents..etc. and everybody in each room had questions that she had to answer to be able to move to the next room and before she left each room the people there would pray over her….so you have to watch each room to see how that goes…he chose roses because Keisha aunt who passed suddenly loved roses and he bought some of the dipped in gold because of the stories in the Bible about Solomon and how everything was dipped in gold and the song that you hear playing in the background was the same song that was played at Keisha aunts funeral, she was like a second mom to Keisha.”

The combination of the beautiful stage he set for his love, the powerful song of praise playing over the slide show and my own heart’s desire to one day be the woman that a brilliant man man is proud to stand beside..well..it moved me to tears.

They say it’s the thought that counts, but in this case, the ACTION required to make this event come together, spoke so much more.

I don’t really need a big grand engagement. (I’d much rather our house be big and grand) but.. for a moment, I had to sit back and wonder…how I can love so deeply and so passionately and with so much loyalty yet…I have never received anything like that in return?

It kinda makes me feel like all this talent, all this beauty, all this…flavor..well… ~shrugs~ I guess it will come in due time. I remind myself everyday as I continue to save my body, my time and my heart for someone who will appreciate it…I am okay. I will experience that thing they call…LOVE.

And because I waited for the real thing and didn’t settle for the convenient thing, it will be that much more special and blessed.

Bless you in your faith that you will be loved. Please realize that you ARE loved already…by your friends, your family and those who look up to you. As you continue to pour out blessings over their lives and love them the way God loves you…your time will come to reap every miraculous fantasy that you’ve ever dared to daydream about.

You WILL be loved. You will receive your Godsend. Just focus on God, pursue your purpose and everything will fall into place. I promise.
