to Asta & Brendon!

so much happening these days
should blog more, but either i don't have the time or there is something better to do
hmm time flies!

went to a wedding ceremony yesterday afternoon, together with my parents
was such a beautiful ceremony, such beauty in the union of asta and brendon =) it was such a joy to witness!
not to be entered into lightly or selfishly

giving yourself up for another other person
the coming together of two different people, with different values, attitudes, habits.
the reverend was saying how marriage shouldnt be aimed at developing a "new" person out of you, but rather, to grow the person you are already more and more, grow and mould you into a living sacrifice, holy and blameless in front of God
anyway marriage is beautiful. kinda analoguous to really nice wrapping paper an awesome gift comes to you in...the gift of salvation. this day and age, some see marriage as being a restrictive and all, but personally i think it's a truly wonderful blessing =)

to protect and cherish....an environment in which children can be born and nurtured for in love

made me realise once again at how far off i am from being a good girlfriend, let alone a good wife
my friend berated me though, saying that it is and always will be God who will make us "good" - good husbands and wives, good children and parents, good brothers and sisters, good friends and neighbours....people who bring glory to Him
