Dear friends....although the last blog was on the 9th of July (officially it was the 10th!), I want each of you to know the graciousness and goodness of our Lord.  If you live in the Pittsburgh area the weather report for our daughter's wedding day was not great.  Out of the past ten days or so the only day of predicted thunderstorms was the 11th of July..  The percentage went from 30 at the beginning of the week and grew to 80....the father of the bride was almost pacing the floor and checking the internet on an hourly basis. 

Me....well, I finally said, "Gary, I'm not worrying about it any more.  We are going to thank God for every minute that it doesn't rain today."  And the day began.  As a testimony to our Lord, the only rain we experienced was a few drops outside the church before the couple emerged following the ceremony and receiving line.  Kimberly and Luke were almost through greeting guests and Kimberly (being the independent little thing she is) commented that she wanted to see the last few people that were waiting in line.  By the time she finished hugging and kissing everyone, the sun was back out and she got to exit the church with her new husband to lots and lots of bubbles! 

After church photos were done the wedding party climbed into the limo and headed to W&J College and had OUTSIDE pictures taken IN THE SUN!  The rest of the day....no rain!  We found out later that in Cleveland there were torrential downpours and thirty minutes outside of our area it was raining so hard some of our guests had to slow down their vehicles to a crawl!  It was as if God stretched out His mighty hands and protected this beautiful couple and their wedding day from showers.

My husband, Gary, spoke of being of little faith......I, once again, saw my Lord give me the desires of my heart....to Him be the honor and glory! 

I will blog more "wedding details" tomorrow....but today, God gets all the honor and the blog!
