This weekend my husband and I went to a wedding which was
held on the shores of Lake Erie. As the
wedding began there was a storm moving across the horizon. While the young couple repeated their vows, the
hazy slate blue and steel gray clouds moved closer and appeared to be slipping
down into the water. In the background
bolts of lightning seemed to punctuate the couple’s love for each other. In stark contrast to the hazy clouds, the
bride in a beautiful white gown and the groom in a traditional black tux stood
face-to-face proclaiming their love for each other. The poignant scene made me think of the verse
in 2 Thessalonians 3:5, May the Lord direct your hearts into
God’s love and Christ’s perseverance. As we move through lives with our loved ones we
must remember that while the love from our spouse and children is comforting, God’s
love is all powerful. Have a blessed
week!
