My sister, Spencer, is going to be married very soon. I just got back from the rehearsal, which started to bring a bit of emotion to me (though I know all the emotion is really going to come on the actual wedding day). I just can't believe it's really happening already. Last year, it didn't even come to my mind that Spence would be getting married anytime soon (simply because she's my sister, and it's often hard to picture your siblings in those situations). Yet here she is already. I'm expecting that things are probably going to feel a bit lonely and empty for me once the wedding's past, but I hope to make it a chance to start something new. What exactly that "something" will be, I don't know, but I'm excited to see what God will do in my life. And of course, I can't forget...Spencer, I especially can't wait to see what God will do in your life. I can't wait to see things unfold as you and John spend the rest of your lives together. I wish you the best for every minute of it. Your friendship (or sistership? ;-) has meant so much to me as time has gone on. I hope our friendship will continue to strengthen and grow as we both enter these new parts of our lives. I love you so much!
Deuteronomy 31:8: "It is the LORD who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you..."
Oh, my baby sister -- you are so sweet, I wanted to cry when I read this post. You have honored me more than I deserve. I love you so much, and will miss not living with you anymore too! I'm glad that I still work nearby and can see you before I work during the week! Thank you for all of your sweet words and wonderful encouragement. I'm so proud of my grown up , godly little sister. The Lord has done such wonderful things for you!
Much love,
Sissie
You both made me cry.
(((((Jordan))))) I love you so much...what a powerful verse you gave us to think about! Remember I'm always here if you need a visit with a sister (and nieces!) :-) I know just what you mean...I'm going to try hard not to go into the "ugly cry" on the wedding day!
