A month ago i got married.
Boy has it been a turmoil of events, laughing, crying... sometimes yelling i'll admit. I definitely became a person i did not know... It was strange it seems the days before your wedding you really are floating on a cloud, you don't know whether you are happy, sad, crazy or just sleep deprived.
Its amazing how much planning goes into one event, absolutely insane i would say! You plan, plan, and plan and in the end does it really matter. Well it does in some ways because you want your day to scream you, and yet thats not what it is about.
I guess Weddings, Christmas and Easter have all become this way. These times that the Lord created for us to celebrate, to celebrate our union as two people becoming one, to celebrate His birth, to celebrate his death and resurrection. Yet somewhere along the line we hallmarked it, it became just about us and not about the Lord. We have lost the essence of it all. I have always known this when it came to Christmas but my wedding, i never really thought about it.
The white dress, my purity not just sexually but pure in the Lord, my pure relationship with Him! walking towards my husband with my father and significant of so much more than just walking down the aisle.
All this to say, i am thankful i had my head screwed on enough to just enjoy my day, but to look back and be reminded of the significance of it all.
I have been wishing that i could have my day again, just so i can re-live it! Not because anything was wrong with it, it was absolutely perfect, but just because i was so exhausted i feel like i missed alot of it.
However what does that matter, the Lord brought us together and under Him we are one, who cares what the flowers looked like or if it rained or not... or anything like that. It is that we were married under God! Everyone told me, just enjoy your day it goes by so fast... but thats just it it never was "my" day it was the Lords day. God brought us together and it will be forever that way... it was all about Him not us... and that is something to remember
