"Mawwage....Mawwage is wah bwings us heere todayyy."

So Hannah and I finally tied the knot on March 21st and it was an ABSOLUTE blast! My wife is the most beautiful bride in the whole wide world and I couldn't help but tear up when I FINALLY saw her walking down the aisle! She just seemed to float as she got closer and closer. It was a great day and I not only got to kiss her once but twice! It was great! I couldn't help escape thinking that this is how it will be when we get to heaven. We will fully become the "bride of Christ!" What a GREAT thought! Being totally consumed by our Savior and seeing Him face to face!

Love and Marriage

Well, Hannah and I are getting married in less than a week now and WE ARE SO STOKED!!!!!!!!!!!!! Yes Jeff, STOKED! It's really funny because I always used to feel awkward or just feel like shutting off when someone would talk about getting married (I wasn't bitter by any means!) but over the last 4 or 5 months I've really seen how God uses marriage to show us how He loves us. I mean think about it, someone that you'd lay your life down at any moment for, to protect, to give them without receiving anything in return, to walk with you through life, to help support them and carry them when they are down, and to give when they just can't. How cool is that! Then you throw in the whole "love making" aspect of it and we all know that's only something God could have created! Even the angels in Heaven who were created for worshipping God don't even get to do that! MAN I CAN'T WAIT! There is also one other aspect of marriage too. It is a duty of worship. Think about this, we choose our mate (meaning that we freely choose and are lead to our mate by grace) and once we say "I DO" it is set for life. We are making a choice for the rest of our lives to wake up next to that person no matter how HOT or how not so Hot they look (on certain mornings without the make up and...well you get it). It becomes our duty because we made that choice to say those vows everyday....even when we don't feel like it we must choose to love that person even when the world says to walk away. We are not perfect but that is where Jesus' blood comes in to play. He died to cover our imperfections not just so that we could spend eternity with Him but so that we could help our spouse, our friend, our LIFE PARTNER for the rest of our lives! How ROCKIN' is that!!!! We get to help someone but in turn we get to be helped by that same person we are helping! This all just came to make sense for me so sorry for ranting but just had to share it! Hope all of you have a great week and say a prayer for Hannah and I as we get married next Saturday! Pray that she will be able to tolerate my stupidity mostly! Take care and God bless!
