Determination


Many brides and grooms let those beautiful cars to be taken from their houses to the church and than to the reception. I have seen some of them. They are really gorgeous It is very easy to identify them. They are usually black, smart, like Mercedes and Rolls Royce and there is a ribbon on the front.


I live about a hundred metres from the church, so we went to the church on foot. Everybody left the house about half an hour before the wedding celebration time, which was 12:30, but I left only 10 minutes before. I was very calm, happy, and going to the church on foot brought me a soul refreshment.


The weather was absolutely beautiful, a little windy, but no rain at all, and no cold.

Expectations


Once I said that I would like to remember all the blessings God have made in my life. As I was preparing for something that He had prepared first, I realized that I was extremely happy but sensitive, so, it was very easy to cry.


Can you imagine when I was buying my dress? My heart only stopped in one model. Do you know what I mean? No doubts at all I had found the right dress, or if you want, He had found for me.


I was so glad to have things done by myself, that I decided to do my hair, my makeup, and my bouquet. All very very simple, but with so much love.


See if you like.

My Wedding

Unbelievable, but our special day is coming.


All the expectations around preparing clothes, ceremony, guests, and the reception.


Lots of work to be done, and the weather is unpredictable. It's time for summer, more hours of sunshine, but it is completely on the opposite. It has been raining for 2 months.


We decided for a very informal celebration in the garden. We put up a big tent, and the wind was blowing strong, and stronger... we were apprehensive...the tent wasn't strong enough, or the wind was stronger than the tent. When I saw it was upside down. It was time to silence our hearts, and prepare the other things, and of course...pray...because it was in His hands.

Realization

You might have been wondering what happened to me that I have not posted for a long time .

Yeap, I have a good reason, believe me...but let me tell you something before.

Since my adolescence I have asked Lord to give me a husband. Yeap, I dreamed with a beautiful life in family with children, meals, trips, and everything that a family does together.

I wrote my dream in a piece of paper and I prayed Lord for this gift, according to His wish, and His time, because you know...everything we want, we want for the day before yesterday...it's very hard to wait...but I waited...

Lord had mercy of my life and after 3 (three) years praying for "the gift", He finally gave me the best of the best.

1 Blessed are all who fear the LORD,

who walk in his ways. PSalm 128
