My Lord,

Today was a beautiful day. You continue to amaze me with your sweet, sweet grace. My precious little sister was married today and you gave her a perfect sunny landscape to compliment their love. It was breezy and warm and the clouds displayed your creative shapes and color as they did all the days prior.
This was the first wedding that I had attended when I knew with certainty, that at least 90 percent of the family and friends were lovers of Christ. Your presence overwhelmed me. The tears that fell were difficult to tame due to the beauty of the bride, the choice she made in her mate and knowing that they, we, all honor and fear you.
You are faithful my Lord. As they spoke their vowels, I believe and believed in my heart, that this sweet couple knows your laws and precepts and long to obey them.
I envy what they have found in you in this stage of their life. I was such a lost soul at 23. Lost to my eyes, but covered and protected by your rod and staff. How sweet the sound, He saved a wretch like me.

Eternally yours
