Alright, I am going to be honest and tell you that (1) I am ready to be married and (2) I kinda wish all the planning was over. Not in the "Oh geez, I just wish I could be married" kind of way, but more along the lines of, "OMG! I have so much in my head right now I am about to explode!" Or is it a mixture of both...
Seriously though, I am very blessed to be able to have this oppurtunity in my life, but I also feel suspended by the cords of anticipation knowing that very soon my ties to those cords will be loosed and I will be sent flying into another life. I am both looking forward to this feeling, but also a bit frightened.
I guess I should reword that by saying I am more anxious to see what the Lord will do in this new season of my life. Although I don't like using the word anxious because it implies impatience. What I know is that God will
always provide for me and take care of me. I am more concerned about my ability to accept what the Lord has given me and see it as good than worry about my present circumstances.
That is the bottom line really.
Listen to these beautiful words from Psalm 20:
May the Lord answer you in times of trouble. May the God of Jacob protect you.
May he send you help from his temple and support you from Mount Zion.
May he remember all your offering and accept all your sacrifices.
May he give you what you want and make your plans succeed, and we will shout for joy when you succeed, and we will raise a flag in the name of our God.
May the Lord give you all that you ask for.
