Happy "One month til I get married to the man of my dreams"!!!!! :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D (LOL that is, Bebby #2, for any of you trio members out there!)
I cannot begin to voice how tuckered out I am. Never before have I been faced with such emotional turmoil, so many to-dos, such excitement, such uncertainty, such sadness (over leaving my family behind), even such spiritual upheaval......I've been going through a lot since I've been engaged. Now, with all I just listed above, perhaps you're wondering if I'm happy to be getting married - refer to first paragraph!!!!!!! I cannot wait to become Mrs. Sean Harrell. :-) It is all that I think about, and the thought of seeing him every day, caring for him in any way I can, being there through so many things with him, starting a family together, creating a home together, pretty much being everything we are now only better...even doing devotions every night together...the thought of all that is so exciting to me, and I cannot wait to being fulfilling the wife role. It's just a ton to be facing all at the same time. There is a heck of lot to do when a person is getting married!!! The money part isn't even a problem - God is providing for that so well, and it's nothing other than Him, so to Him be the absolute glory for that. I am so thankful for His provisions. It's just all the paperwork, all the party-planning ('cause that's in essence what you're doing when you are wedding planning - throwing a huge party for everyone else!), the prepping for moving, etc. (which includes a new job!) is leaving this gal a little stressed. How are all of you other engaged chicks doing out there??? (mainly MEL????????????????)
So, all that to say, please keep this in your prayers! But most importantly, be praying for this upcoming marriage - I really think, and truly hope, that the Lord is going to do something wonderful through the two of us being married, even if it's just helping a ton of people together, for His name. Just pray that when we begin our marriage, we are ready for it in any way we can be, and that we can better know how to serve and be there for one another. We can read all the books we want, but it all comes down to the discipline of action and mind in the end!
I hope all is well with you guys! :-) I know I will see a lot of you at the wedding, so I can't wait to see you in a little over 30 days! YAHOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
