Celebrating Weddings – Lectio Divina

July 4, 2010 By Jean Wise

I delight greatly in the Lord; my soul rejoices in my God. For he has clothed me with garments of salvation and arrayed me in a robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom adorns his head like a priest, and as a bride adorns herself with her jewels. Isaiah 61:10 (NIV)
Today is my son, Brian’s, wedding day.  He is marrying a marvelous young woman – Mandy. I am thankful and celebrating today! I delight greatly in the Lord!
Apache Wedding Blessing

Now you will feel no rain


For each of you will be shelter to the other.


Now each of you will feel no cold


For each of you will be warmth to the other. 


Now there is no loneliness for you


For each of you will be companion to the other.

Now you are two persons


But there is one life before you.


Go now to your dwelling place to enter into the days of your togetherness


And may your days be good and long upon the earth.

I love you both – May God drench you with many, many happy days and surround you with His love.
