The Truth

India Arie made a song called "The Truth" speaking of a man who is the total package. Many women haven't found their "truth"... I pray that one day they can experience what I have experienced with my "truth".


George and I met when I was 14 and he was 13. To say that we despised each other would be a true understatement. Our "Hate" for each other was so real that even to this day (we have been married for 2+ years) his nephew still trips out on the fact that we got married. It was that crazy.


I love how God so perfectly ordains things though because at that age and up until we actually started dating when I was 20... I was not mentally ready for someone to love me so beautifully. I was still partying wayyyyyy too much. I wasn't ready to give up my freedom. And I know I would have squandered something that was so perfect had we started something earlier then we did.


But at the tender ages of 19 and 20 God saw fit for his perfect love to ripen in us. Through the most unfortunate circumstances of a car accident he brought forth a love I could have never dreamed up if I tried. A perfect fairly tale. Something just clicked.


That day will always be etched in my mind. The day our worlds truly collided.


Was it hard from the beginning? Yes! People fought us being together...i fought us being together. I was away in nursing school. The phone was our best friend. Long distance tried to place a wedge between us but it didn't work. We survived but not only survive we thrived.


Between nursing school and the Fire Academy. He say she say. My wavering. His stability. The minor 3 month break up. Through it all... George Davis has been the glue of our relationship. He has made me feel like something when my self esteem was on the floor. He has given me hope when all I felt was despair. He has been my strength when I was too weak to even think. George has made our relationship stable. There are a lot of things I would and could take credit for but keeping our relationship calm and thriving is truly a work of God and God working through George.


He was not my type. AT ALL! He was the total opposite... but up until him my type had me thinking true love was impossible. He told me point blank that he would make me fall in love with him. Even though I tried to fight it I loved him from the beginning.
It's only now that I realize that when God truly orchestrates something time has no boundaries. George stole my heart before I could even begin to think that I truly liked him.


To this day he is still stealing my heart. His love is so simple but perfect. His voice is my peace on a rough day. Although I fuss and start unnecessary stuff he never lets that determine how he treats me. He is truly from God. He had truly made my life better.


I pray that if you have not experienced your "truth" and that's something you desire that God gives you your heart's desires.


On today I simply want to let God and the world know that I am forever grateful for my "truth"!


I love you, George!
