Today is my parent's anniversary.
36 years of marriage - today.
36 years of solid commitment - that has lasted through joy and pain.
Literally.
This weekend, I got to watch a marriage start.
The beautiful relationship started with a beautiful wedding.
And maybe I appreciated it more because I'm in a relationship myself...
But maybe it meant more to me because I know that soon.... sooner than I'd like... soon, I will watch a marriage end.
And that hurts.
It leaves me on my knees with my hands out.
But instead of staying there... I will rise to join my parents....
In lifting high the name of Jesus.
Jesus. Him whose marriage feast will never end.
One day soon.
Revelation 19:7
Let us rejoice and be glad and give the glory to Him, for the marriage of the Lamb has come and His bride has made herself ready.
