Glorious Grace



My friend is a treasure. I've known her many years. When I met her she was a "teeny bopper" bouncy around with so much energy, she made me tired and I was still considering myself to be young. She babysat (kid sat as the prince would say) for me many times. Since that time I've been so blessed to watch God grow her into an amazing woman after his heart. She is counting down to her wedding and I find myself a little apprehensive. You see, while she is blissfully happy, I realize I don't know the young man to whom she pledges her love and life. Which transports me back in time and I feel my own mother's heart breaking when I joyfully announced I was getting married to someone she barely knew as well. So...What do I tell myself? I tell myself that I trust her prayer life. She would not make this decision without having marinated it in prayer. There is much going on in their lives right now (Glorious Grace)www,gloriousgrace.blogspot.com, but I know my God. He's good. He's faithful. He loves her more than I do. He'll see her through.

GG, when you read this, know I love you and I'm so proud of you!

Make that time number 1,437 that I've cried this week...is it normal to cry this much?

I LOVE YOU - I've said it before and I will say it again: out of everyone I know and have journeyed with, I would have it no other way than you and Mr. Thumperfun singing at the ceremony.

XOXO
