Anybody Can Be A Bride Today

We know a "Bride" as the beautiful woman at a wedding, but if you are confused by the use of the word "Bride" in this blog...this term is used because we should be living a life in constant preparation for His return just as a "Bride" is constantly preparing to get ready on her wedding day (Revelation 21). We do this by having a relationship with Jesus and living a life that is pleasing to Him. The Christian Church eagerly awaits our wedding day with the Lord! If you have any questions or would like to talk about how to become part of the "Bride" and don't know who to ask, you can ask me, I would love to lead you into a relationship with Him. Read John 3:16 if nothing else!

For as long as you both shall live

So several months ago, it may have even been a year ago, my husband and I were talking...okay maybe I was talking and he was being a great listener (as usual)! BUT I was explaining to him how I pray for women so much when I hear about them getting married because I know how the mind works during this time for most of us. We immediately switch gears into focusing on the WEDDING DAY and completely ignore anything beyond that DAY because that DAY is what is important.

Well, I attended a wedding this weekend that was the most precious wedding I think I have ever attended! I know we all want Christ to be the center, but are we really making Him the center of our relationships? Every part of this wedding and reception that I attended this weekend gave me confidence that this couple was DEFINITELY making Him the center of their life together. No matter how perfect we want our wedding day to be, we need to focus even more on what will happen after that day and for the rest of our lives. If Christ is at the center of our life together than we have nothing to fear because He WILL get us through. We have a sweet God who wants us to enjoy a life together so that we can be a light for Him to others. That's what marriage is for...a testimony. Psalms 27:1
