What a day!!! A wet day. A day that had many challenges. A beautiful outdoor wedding planned but moved in due to rain. A grandfather a couple doors away struggling to survive. Last minute changes and challenges on such a big day could send some into a nervous break down but not for these two. Their hearts are totally in it. The real meaning of the day was at the center of every moment and every breath. Their focus steady and never wavering. A true testament to their character and their love. Some might would think that a day such as theirs would be called ruined but what I and so many other very privileged guests saw was a day cleansed by the rain. It brought with it a beautiful luster. It seemed to have washed all that was not important away. Would not have been possible without this rock solid couple standing arm in arm together before the Lord. He was there, they were there and that was all that mattered. But as those that love the Lord know, that was not all that was given. This day was filled with total comfort and splendor, fitting for such a deserving couple. The details were so “Mike and Myra”. The flowers were nothing short of amazing and the hydrangeas were their crowning glory. The friends’ and family’s support was so touching. Their pastor surely delivered a divine message and ceremony. And the barn for the reception was so ideal. Mike and Myra, the animal lovers that they are, both being Veterinarians, kept me imagining a scene from the Disney Classic Snow White. You know the one, when all the animals gathered around her. I could just picture coming from the surrounding woods, the little critters, deer, foxes, bears and the good Lord only knows what else. It was really a beautiful day and I thank God for orchestrating it so perfectly for Mike and Myra. And I also thank Him and this beautiful couple for allowing me the awesome privilege of being there that Glorious Day.
