The Wedding

I just returned from Nashville yesterday. I was there attending/handing out programs for Lindsay and Daniel's wedding. It was a weeking filled with fun and happiness. For those of you who don't know, Lindsay was my roommate last year and I really got to experience her relationship with Daniel first hand. Their relationship is filled with love for God and love for each other and as I told them at the rehearsal dinner, there is no doubt in my mind that they will spend the rest of their lives happily married. Because of the events of the weekend, and because I spent most of my time with 3-7 girls, most of the conversation consisted of talk of relationships and marriage. That combined with many inspiring speeches at the rehearsal dinner led me to think of my life and relationships. David, the best man and Daniel's younger brother, impressed me very much with his speech. He said he could see Daniel sprinting as fast as he could toward God and then Daniel looks over and there's Lindsay running right beside him. He talked about how they were helping each other grow closer to God and pushing each other on. He also said that God used Daniel to show Lindsay how much He loves her and he uses Lindsay to show Daniel how much He loves him. I have tried to repeat this to people but I'm not sure if it's coming out right. However, that's the gist. Sorry if it doesn't make sense the way I'm wording it.
All this to say, with each wedding or each conversation, I learn more about how I want my relationship to be with my future husband. I really just want it to be a relationship that people can see God in always. A relationship where we put each other first and always work to bring the other closer to God. That's what we're here for anyway, right? To glorify God and to help others do the same.
