My Best Friends Wedding...

This weekend one of my bestest friends got married!!! I must say that it was the most beautiful wedding i have ever gone too! And most fun! We broke it down like no ones business and had some pretty darn awesome dance moves! (right mom she was in the middle of the circle the whole time!)My overall favorite move was the can opener! We played the napkin game...danced to thriller (good job girls we worked hard on our dance!) My other best friend fell for one of the groomsmen yay!!! thanks to my matchmaking skills! Took lots and lots of pictures...cried...and just had a great time! Overall it was AMAZING! As many emotions ran through my head that day i can say that it was a happy day because we all knew it was God sent let me share Nana and Luke's story....In all the years i've known nana (7 yrs to be exact) she has never had a boyfriend....and never seemed interested in boys...she had a bad break up and decided as hard as it would be that she would wait on God...i never heard her complain about being single or wanting someone in fact when we would complain she would just comfort us...so patient she was...and she waited and waited not even concerned by singleness she decided to follow her God dreams to go on many mission trips during college but when she was in college she decided that she loved muslims...and so when she came home she decided God wanted her to live among the muslims and share Jesus! Her family was not in agreement and niether were some of her friends (i was supportive!) knowing how dangerous it was...she told us that it was what God had called her to do and if she stayed here she would be misserable....so God opened the doors and in Sept. of last year she left to Jordan for a year :( i was sad i missed her like crazy but i knew this was the path God had for her...Well he did He had her future husband waiting for her! It was not a week later she crossed paths with Luke Frederick (her husband) and little by little their "friendship" as she so commonly refered to turned into "i like a boy..." i rem. opening the email! I was so happy for her but could not believe that it had happened! When she came home in June we were so excited to meet him! and we did and he was her perfect match...we knew he was the one...and it wasn't long until he proposed in December! 6 months later i am standing at her left side watching her say her vows! This was a love story written by God! So girls if ur reading this...its worth it to hold out on Gods best be patient he's out there! (i know!) :)

Kristy,

I love you Princess & agree 100%. God works in amazing ways. Our hearts beat for missions & when she went out to the field we were so excited...it was like mom & I were going out...and then God throws us an extra special blessing by putting Luke in her path.

And it gets better, we got to meet other young Christian men and women at the wedding that are called to the same passion God put in our hearts...Missions! Thank you Lord!

Love you God...bless Christina and Luke's marriage abundantly. Continue to use them to touch others for Jesus!

Kristy,

Love you so much! I'm so glad you shared Cristina and Luke's story. It is truly a beautiful God story of how two people followed the passion in their hearts and God brought them together. The wedding was lots of fun!

Love you,
Mom
