| Our pastor sent us an email with the whole wedding script for us to look at and tweek if we want to. Ryan and I were looking over it tonight and looking at Ephesians 5 about our roles as husband and wife and how it relates to the gospel because there were a few things we wanted to add.
It is amazing that God instituted marriage with Adam and Eve before the fall: they became 'one flesh.' Paul says in Ephesians, "this mystery is profound, and I am saying that it refers to Christ and the church." The whole purpose of marriage is to be a picture of Christ's love for His bride, and it was given to man even before sin entered the world!
I am excited that I get to share "this mystery" with Ryan. He has been such a blessed reminder of Christ's love for me in his eagerness to serve me and pursue me. So much so that it humbles me and makes me praise God for his generosity toward me despite what my sin deserves. God is so kind and generous to give us such wonderful earthly delights like marriage. And how much greater will the things of heaven be?

| God has been so good to me. His generosity is so near, I can taste it. The gifts of His hands continue to flow me in an avalanche of blessing...but I miss His face.
Put down your paper plate
Come to the table made
Deep blue china
Found on the table by the wine
So fine
Well it brings out flavor
Like You bring out color in life
Oh, I miss You so
The feel of forever
Oh, that taste I know
It hurts to remember
Unfortunately high
Ironically dissatisfied
I miss you
I miss you
I miss you
Oh, I miss you so
The feel of forever
Oh, that taste I know
It hurts to remember
I had a fleeting thought this morning
And I mentioned You today
It breaks my heart just to know You in part
And not to be with You where You are
Oh, I miss you so
The feel forever
Oh, that tasteI know
It hurts to remember
Oh, I miss you so
The feel of forever
Oh, that taste I know
