A Wedding

Jeremy and Coady's Wedding

Last weekend I had the pleasure to see two good friends get married. Not only was I able to witness a joyful moment in a friends life I got a great opportunity to practice my photography skills. As you can see I have included a few from a set of 20 that I was pretty happy with. A little tweaking on photoshop gave me some great results.

On a deeper note the level of Christian influences throughout the service struck me. I’ve been to a few non-Christian weddings but none have left me feeling like how I felt on Saturday. It was made clear through out the services and in the speeches that a Christian marriage is not only between the couple but also with God, Ecclesiastes 4:12 shows us this. This covenant with God gives us some hope when we look at the world and the numerous amounts of marriages that fail. There will be trials and tribulation in all marriages but how relieving it is to know that you have a God who allows it for good (Romans 8:28 and Genesis 50:20). God’s will for good to come out of all trials and tribulations in marriage connects into a sermon preached at our church by Peter Hall. Overall Saturday was a great time to celebrate a marriage with some nice people.

Though one may be overpowered,
two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.
Ecclesiastes 4:12 (NIV)
