a wedding and a funeral


This week I have been balancing two very different events--a wedding and a funeral. The common denminator is that in both cases it involves people with whom I am intimately connected. As a result, there are alot of converging emotions to process as I prepare for both.


A wedding is a joyous event. Two people who love each other joined together for life. What a blessing!


A funeral is a joyous event. A believer and her Savior joined together for eternity. What a blessing!


I just realized that in this case--where believers are involved--these events are not that different. They are relationships built on mutual commitment to one another made to last forever.


I can celebrate both!
