Going to the Chapel

I haven’t really written about what’s going on in my life lately, but there sure is a lot! Our wedding day is getting closer. As I write this late at night, it’s officially 52 days away. It’s amazing how slowly and yet how quickly time passes when you’re engaged. I feel eager for the days to pass, and yet there is so much to do that 52 days doesn’t seem like enough time!

I’m really thankful for the women in my new church family who are extending their help to me during this time. In many ways I feel like I don’t know what I”m doing as far as wedding planning goes, so it’s an incredible blessing to have competent women come together and help me along. I don’t know what I would do without them.

I’m also really thankful for my godly fiance. He is a gift, and as we prepare for marriage I hope to learn how to honor the Lord as a wife. I’m glad I’ve been blessed with so many wonderful examples throughout my life.

It seems like yesterday that I used to write quite often about singleness, and now here I am writing about getting married. How funny, too, that God used my blog as the means to bring me into initial contact with A.J. He works in mysterious ways.

Married or single, life is about Christ and His sufficiency. Gazing on Him is satisfying to the fullest.

Turn your eyes upon Jesus
Look full in His wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of His glory and grace
