Weddings, Weddings Everywhere

I was in a wedding on Saturday, and then I attended a wedding on Sunday. I am physically exhausted, but spiritually awakened.

I can't write every revelation and joy I had this weekend. However, I will say I am blessed to have such godly friends. Each wedding brought glory to God, and renewed my confidence in His ability to sustain relationships. In today's world marriage is a gamble. But, I truly believe if the husband and wife are dedicated to loving God, then God will be faithful to their commitments. He will carry them through the difficult and ugly.

I was honored to be a bridesmaid in my friend Joy's wedding. It was such a blessing to get to know her family. Her mother and father had five girls and no boys. Women love weddings. Watching them laugh, dance, and support Joy was truly an inspiration. Joy and Joe make an adorable couple!

The next wedding was on Sunday. My dear friend Brian got married to a beautiful, intelligent lady named Jennifer. Brian is such a gentle, caring, lovable friend. He is one of my favorites! Anyone who meets him can't help but see Jesus. His gentle nature and meekness have deeply inspired me. Jenn undoubtedly found a gem! I left the wedding early because I was recovering from Saturday's wedding. When I left the church, I saw a beautiful rainbow.

I spent the last few hours of the night with my bridegroom. I am His prize and He is my portion. These weddings reminded me of His everlasting love. I can't wait to see the pleasure on His face when He lifts the veil!

(My camera doesn't't cooperate! I will post pictures once I have them....promise.)
