Weddings

Saturday we were blessed to attend a wonderfully sweet wedding. The couple were just so in love & so happy it was so special just to be a part of their day. It is so diferent to attend a wedding of Bible believing christians than non-believers. Non-believers tend to look at their wedding day as a time to show off. A time to have the most expensive dress, the biggest bouquet, the tallest cake, the most exotic honeymoon & to make the day all about 'them'. Believers, I've noticed, tend to make the day more about God & their families. What God has done for them how he has blessed them & how thankful they are for what their family has done for them.

This wedding was like that. The parents & grandparents were honored. The Lord was given thanks & acknowledgment for all the blessings. The ceremony was more prayer than pomp. The reception was beautiful. Simple, fun, good food, help from friends, just so enjoyable. I cried .

The dress was absolutely lovely. The brides mom made it & I had the privelege of seeing it in it's various stages. It had loads of embroidery & long full train. It was truly beautiful & just such a special thing for a mother & daughter to share.

We have another wedding coming up in 2 weeks & it promises to be just as much fun as this one. In fact, we even get to make meatballs for this one .

Blessings.
