- Single Digits - 9 Days - I can't believe we are this close to the day... A day of celebrating, a day of spending brief seconds in the same conversation over and over, a day of trying to be completely present in the most important moment of our lives...
What's crazy is that the time leading up to the wedding has been almost out of control, and left Jen and myself a bit overwhelmed. I guess that is our doing because we wanted to get married so quickly, but that was better than the other options - or so it appeared at the time. Truth be told, we wish maybe we could have had another month or two simply so the planning would not have been as hectic. All in all, though, we have learned a lot through this process, really had to rely on each other and our families and grown closer in the process. I guess we really couldn't ask for more in the end.
What matters most is that August 12, 2006 around 4:30 pm, we will be in the eyes of God and our family and friends - ONE. I've been thinking a lot about what that word means and how we will become one, in an instant, and then spend the rest of our lives attempting to grow into the mold of being single minded in all we share and do. I guess it really starts with being like-minded and hearted, with God more than with each other.
Reality for us is that we are all separated from the love of God, but for Christ's death and resurrection... And that is our middle ground. When we are differing in opinion and ideals... We must look to God to be the commonality and the direction we move to. Otherwise, we are destined to remain two, to continue being separate and we will fail to experience the joy of being truly joined together for God and by Him.
That is our prayer - to be ONE.
