We are just 3 days away from the wedding! I can't believe it's finally here...it feels like it was just yesterday that we even started dating.
It's been pretty relaxed planning this thing, actually. I'm surprised by how not stressed we're feeling. It feels like things are coming together pretty smoothly...no complaints about that!
My heart is a little sad & I could cry when I look at the weather forecast. The one thing Dusty & I really wanted...the only thing I've been sure of since I was 14 was that the wedding would be outside. It's in nature where I meet with Jesus the clearest, & the same for Dusty. We love being outside...and right now the forecast is calling for 70% rain & thunderstorms. Thursday & Friday.
It's hard to not check weather.com obsessively. But, I know I heard Jesus say 'trust me & stop worrying.'...so I am really not going to check the weather the rest of today or tomorrow. God knows my heart...He created it. He created me to have a connection with nature & to meet with him there. And He's known the desires of my heart & Dusty's since before we were born. So, God, I ask you to do your work. I know you want to lavish me with your love & that you will be present & leading our wedding. I really believe that. Because I know you designed us to be together & you are the center of our relationship & marriage & you have great plans for us. I know you want to shine through our wedding. I want to be open-handed with what it looks like...want to, but I'm not there yet. I want to keep my hopes up too...not just expect the worst & then be surprised if it's better.
So, I believe you. I trust you. And I give you this wedding.
Love, Melissa.
