"And dance with all your might, lift up your hands and clap for joy. The time's drawing near when He will appear. And oh, we will stand by His side, a strong, pure, spotless bride"

Those were the words of one of the new songs we sang at church today. It was a really awesome service of celebration. A wedding banquet! We've been discussing communion for a few weeks now and today was our final message on it. We celebrated as the first body of believers did when
celebrating communion. Not a mournful, reflective type ceremony, but one of a joyous, celebratory nature. We are the bride and He is our bridegroom! What a beautiful picture of his love for us. And as a bride would wait for her groom to come for her after preparing a place for her, we too, await the arrival of our bridegroom as he prepares our heavenly home for us. Such a beautiful love story! So this is a picture of communion being shared at one of the tables. :)





And as a follow up to yesterday's blog, I thought it would be appropriate to tell of how I was accosted by the Nazi Boy Scouts today. I went to Hyvee this afternoon and even before I got to the door I could see the swarm of boy scouts eyeing me from just inside. I heard one boy say 'oh, here's our next one(victim!).' Upon the doors opening I found multiple bags and boxes of popcorn thrust into my face and heard a chorus of young boys' confused sales pitches. I was a little overwhelmed by all of the commotion and hastily withdrew a dollar to purchase 1 bag (yes, just one lonely bag) of popcorn and got the heck out of Dodge!! Whew. Steer clear of those boy scouts!!




Hasta la próxima vez ... :)
