I love weddings! Today we are going to witness not just a wedding, but another story of the beauty and power of God's love and restoration.
Seven years ago, this couple bought a marriage license and said "I Do." A couple of years later, they received a letter stating that their marriage was not legally valid due to a detail that they had failed to notice and follow when they got the license. Of course, this was devastating news, especially to the wife. They continued to live as husband and wife, but no action was taken to change the legal status of the marriage. As the next few years passed, the couple went through the typical marital struggles, and found themselves questioning their faith as well, and it was beginning to look as though the relationship was going to end. They decided to seek out help through counseling, and they sought out my husband and me recently and shared their hearts and their story with us. We were privileged to be able to encourage them in their relationship and their faith.
I have already found myself getting misty when I think of the faithfulness of the Lord in restoring this relationship, and I know that He is passionately pursuing relationship with them. So today, we are looking forward to adding our blessing and agreement to this marriage, and to make ourselves available to love on and encourage them in their marriage journey and their faith journey as well.
