Last night (11/11), Jono & Simone were wed in the most extravagant setting. The site, the cake, the dress ... all of it would suggest that money was no object. And in many ways, that was true - but not because of their own wealth. Friends offered their vineyard ... they won a custom-made designer dress and tuxedo (not to mention the honeymoon in the Maldeves!) ... and friends and family came together to put together a wedding that most people will only ever dream of.
For us - and I know for the bride and groom, too - it was just one more lesson of our Father's extravagance. His desire to ABUNDANTLY bless, more than we even ask or imagine.
This whole week, really, has felt like a time of receiving such richness from Him. Psalm 24:1 says "The earth is the Lord's and the fullness thereof; the world and all those who dwell therein." I love the phrase "fullness thereof".
Our hearts have definitely found a home here in South Africa even in this short time, both in the natural beauty and the people we've been surrounded with.
Do be on your knees for us as we head to India tomorrow ... no idea what to expect ...
