Thanks, June. We are excited too…excited for the wedding to get here as well as for the day after! ha. My house has turned into wedding central with piles of stuff everywhere. But I know it’s only for a season. That perfectionism has to be drilled out of us through many circumstances. ๐Ÿ™‚

But I’ve come a long way, through hard-learned lessons. Directly from God’s hand, I’m sure! So excited for your family!

Oh, congratulations to your friend, Lori! Our wedding is the weekend prior to hers. They’re both coming up though! Yikes. ha. But I’m ready and definitely looking forward to it as well. I know Selah will be beautiful. Jenna is having two of the grandmothers be the flower “girls” in her wedding! Can’t wait to see that. ๐Ÿ™‚

Be grateful that you’re that way, Lori! It’s a gift to not care as much what others think. I’m probably middle on the scale of it, so I’m grateful I’m not more toward the edge anyway. ha.

My daughter’s former respite care provider (and precious treasure in our lives) is getting married on October 8th. I wonder if it’s the same weekend? Selah is going to be a flower girl in the wedding! We are so looking forward to it!

And yes, it’s not about looking good, it’s about loving well!
Thanks for sharing hope with me at #MomentsofHope!

Blessings,
Lori

While I don’t understand why they worry so much, they don’t understand why I don’t care as much as they do. Maybe when my son is older and preparing to marry will my worry and concern kick in. ๐Ÿ™‚

I love this! Because itโ€™s not about looking good. Itโ€™s about loving well.

Thanks for sharing with Thankful Thursdays.

Thanks for sharing about your own daughter’s wedding, Barbie. My daughter definitely isn’t into traditions, so there won’t be much traditional about this wedding. The trends seem to be going against the old way of doing weddings anyway, some for the good, some just different. ๐Ÿ™‚ All the more reason to stay focused on the main thing!

Yes, this is it exactly, Horace. “God stepped in to remind me of His presence and to focus on showing His love to all who attended. That is what is most important in every situation we find ourselves. We need to be a reflection of Jesus!” Amen. Thanks for sharing what helped you with your 50th; it will help me with the wedding. Blessings to you!

It’s what she wanted, and what we could afford. I too had so many anxious thoughts about it all, and what others would think. I’ve come a long way in my perfectionist thinking but I still struggle with fear of man. This was insightful. Looking forward to hearing all about the beautiful day!

This past Summer in planning my 50th birthday party for last month, I was consumed with everything being just right. I must admit it has taken a few weeks to clear my mind and decompress just a bit since the party. I was pleased that it turned out so well and everyone enjoyed themselves. However, there were times in the process of planning when God stepped in to remind me of His presence and to focus on showing His love to all who attended. That is what is most important in every situation we find ourselves. We need to be a reflection of Jesus! I know everything will turn out well for your daughter’s wedding. Thank you again for sharing your heart with us. Have a fantastic weekend and may God continue to richly bless you and yours in all your preparations for the big day!
