I can’t wipe this grin off my face. I am just sooo happy that we’re finally married. I am now Mrs. Djamillah Maria Turaray ABAYA…*sigh*

God has been good. My life has been a testimony of his greatness. He has blessed me greatly through the years and it has been just wonderful.

Years ago, after going through a very bad relationship (bad doesn’t even come close to describing how it really was), I said a prayer that God would give me a man that was “close to God” and that had fear of Him. I also said that the next guy I would be with would be the last one for me and that if it still didn’t work out, I was through with “love”. Tey, in his own world at the time, also said his own little prayer. And through a payroll dispute, God brought our paths together. At first I was disappointed coz I started to like Tey already but he certainly didn’t look like a man that even knew God so I was holding myself back. Little did I know that he was and is a man big on his faith, whose father is also the head pastor at our church, whose mom was at that time handling the Children’s Ministry and whose brother was the percussionist of the Music Ministry. Tey was also the lead guitarist in the church. I soon got to also be a part of the church’s choir and taught the children in Sunday school. We’re now both leaders in our church. We had A LOT of fun times. We got along real well and we just clicked. And as is in every relationship, there were trials that we went through but nothing was able to break us apart. God was and will always be the center of our relationship. That had to be the key to it all.

After 4 and a half years of being together, we tied the knot yesterday - Dec. 08, 2008. It was a simple civil wedding with people that were very close to us as a couple. *sigh again*


I’m just very happy right now. I’m married to the man I love with half my life (the other half of my life is for Santi Ü). We’ve now officially started our lives as husband and wife..I can’t even begin to express the excitement that dwells in me. Each time I think of it, I just feel all warm and tingly all over.

To our Lord,

I can’t thank You enough for blessing our relationship and now binding us together. You have brought me out of the dumps and showed me that once I receive You as my saviour and keep complete faith and trust in You, You will shower my life with victory. Thank You for blessing me with the perfect partner for me to spend the rest of my life with. May You continue to guide us and protect us always. All glory and honor to Your name Almighty Father!
