What is so different about this Monday?
Well, some things are pretty routine.
I’ll water the garden and eat breakfast.
I’ll be praying and writing.
Yet, this week’s schedule will color all I do.
Because on Saturday our girl is getting married.
I’m very thankful to the Lord for this!
He has been so faithful to us.
He has guided us through all the preparation and here we stand on the brink with very little to do before set-up day.
Of course, we have to travel down and since “running home for…” is out of the question, I’m checking our packing again.
Sis helped me go through the decorations yesterday.
She’s the wedding coordinator and therefore it’s important she understands all the details.
I’ll be asking Anne and Jase to pack their things today.
It’s a shot day, and I’m praying.
Sometimes shots make me very tired.
We are expecting visitors today and tomorrow.
So, I’ll have to plan a few meals.
Throughout all these things, one thing is foremost on my heart.
It’s something God talked to me about at the beginning.
Enjoy the journey, don’t rush through just to get through.
I want to focus on praising the Lord no matter what.
Marriage is His blessing.
He who finds a wife finds a good thing, And obtains favor from the Lord .
Proverbs 18:22 NKJV
My heart’s desire is to be free from worry and stress during this.
To simply walk in peace and thanksgiving to God.
Because I know, He has all the details in His hand.
Praise the Lord!
Dear Lord Jesus,
Thank You for everything You have already done. Thank You for walking with us each and every day. Lord, I don’t know what today holds, but I know I can rest in You throughout. Your will is perfect and although I have my own ideas and plans, I surrender them before You. Please help me to walk with You in all things and to be gracious, patient, and loving. Thank You for this journey. Thank You for Your love. Amen.
