Hey, there’s a wedding!
by Skillie Jacques Botha
As a wedding photographer, I have the privilege to go to a wedding almost every weekend. It is such an inspiring thing to experience.
It’s so awesome that Jesus’ first miracle described in the Bible was turning water into wine at a wedding, and even more amazing that we (the bride of Jesus) will be meeting the Groom of Life at the most epic wedding party of all time in the end!
I’ve recently read Donald Miller’s book A million miles in a thousand years, and there is a line in the book I’d like to share with you that inspired me a lot and opened my eyes to the beauty of life even more:
“One of the things that gives me hope is that, even with all the tragedy that happens in the world, the Bible says that when we get to heaven, there will be a wedding and there will be dancing.”
Boom!
Despite of all the hurt, there is always a master wedding waiting.
Weddings mean life, and the wedding in heaven means eternal life.
Never lose hope, because “Hey, there’s a Wedding!”
