Let the Wedding Plans begin!

This is going to be an exciting year. Wedding plans have started and thank God, everything's moving on smoothly. There are so many things to think about and decide on, the budget, the card, the venue, the gown, the bridal party, the guest list......

Hoi Hian and me have decided that the most important thing for our wedding is that it honours God above everything else. And that we'll be a blessing to our family, friends and relatives who attend our wedding. We don't want it to be just another wedding, where everything's perfect and beautiful and grand to the smallest detail. As long as God's happy, we're happy.

So it's quite a joy planning for the wedding. It's easy depending on God because things just fall into place one by one. I really thank God for my parents and friends who have been so supportive and willing to help in so many areas. The theme for our wedding is 'Blessed' because we're indeed so blessed by God and we want to be a blessing to others.

I feel that God has been taking me to another level of faith lately, not just in terms of wedding preparations but in many other things. I was reminded recently that there are really so many things we cannot control. Our lives are so fragile, anything can happen anytime. But thank God He is always watching over us and we can always count on Him. And having that thought enables me to get through difficult days and grants me sleep at night. It's the comfort of knowing that my Shepherd is watching over me and that whatever happens, He will never forsake me.

Psalm 23:1-3
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for his name's sake.
