One of my new and much younger BFF’s is getting married. She and her long time beau decided “why wait”. However, they each had a different wedding date and place in mind. Normally this is left up to the bride. In this case, it is the second marriage for both.
My BFF wants a fall, rustic wedding in a country chapel; in fact, she had selected the place and the date, 11/11/11. That’s an easy date to remember. This didn’t bide well with her fiance’. He wants a spring wedding on the beach. Needless to say, there will be no wedding 11/11/11, but there will be a wedding.
These two are committed with their relationship being God centered. Having been married before, they both understand compromise and the importance of working things out and working together. Eventually my BFF and her intended will agree on the date and the place and it will be the perfect wedding. After all, in the bigger schemes of things, the date and the place are trivial. It’s the commitment to one another and the relationship you build with each other that matters most, especially with God at the front and center of your lives.
