There is a Season

Ecclesiastes 3
To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up that which is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to get, and a time to lose; a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
A time to rend, and a time to sew; a time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.
He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.
I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.
That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.
The day has come! Yesterday was the time to be born, the time to grow and learn, the time to begin my walk with the Lord. Today is the time to be married and become one in the Lord with my groom. Let us cherish the moments we have together today as they will soon become our memories from yesterday, and let us always remember to put our faith in God, for He IS the one who holds tomorrow!

We appreciate the love, prayers, and support as we make this new beginning together in marriage.

    1. Thank you for the prayers! Heidi Schmidgall took the pictures so they probably won't end up online aside from what goes on the blog and my parents' Facebook page. :)
