Proverbs 18:22 “He who finds a wife finds a good thing and obtains favor from the Lord.”
Last week was a huge week for our family. Our first grandchild (Ruth) was born and while we were in Virginia visiting Ruth, we received a FaceTime call from Grace to announce that she was engaged. We knew it was coming since Davis asked us permission a few weeks ago. We are very excited for the both of them. The plan was for them to get married in May after Davis graduates.
When we returned from our trip, I sat down with Grace and asked her if they have discussed a back up plan in case Wayne started to decline. She said it was important for Wayne to be at their wedding and they had discussed that possibility.
Fast forward to Monday night, I sat her down again and told her they might want to consider moving the wedding up or coming up with a different plan. Wayne has mentioned a few times to me that he feels weaker, his speech is struggling, and we have all noticed decline. That morning he shared with me that he was pretty sure he wouldn’t be here in May to see Grace get married.
So, Tuesday Grace called her future MIL and me to come up with a plan. The result: Grace is getting married 11/29. That’s right, just over 30 days to plan a wedding! God has already opened so many doors and provided in ways we couldn’t have imagined. So if I look frazzled and a hot mess the next few weeks, you know why.
Pray for us on Saturday that we find her dress! We have to buy it off the rack, so that might make it difficult, but we know nothing is too difficult for God.
We are excited to add another member to our family!
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray for us as we quickly plan a wedding and that we find a dress!
- Pray for Wayne to stay strong and for all of us as we navigate all the unknowns.
- Pray for Davis and Grace as they begin their life together. Please also pray for them since they both have finals two days after their wedding.
Congratulations Grace and Davis. We are praying for your whole Family.
