if you have had your t.v. turned on any time today... you know what today is... today is a royal wedding. i of course was glued to the t.v. - once i got in front of one (i do not have t.v. at my house)... kate looked beautiful... timeless... stunning. william... that uniform made him look like a prince out of a fairytale...
my mom and i have talked multiple times today... the last call was about... "do you think we could add those kind of sleeves to my dress? her veil - i think that would make a perfect reception veil... "
and now as i sit in a cafe i think... lucky me... i found my prince too. with my own nuptials less than 3 months away i watch the royal couple and think, "soon its my turn"... granted i will not have millions watching (thank goodness!)... we do not have a 34 million dollar budget (seriouslly?) ... i will not wear a tiara of diamonds - but am in search a a cool vintage headpiece if anyone knows wear to find one... and i will not become queen one day... however... i will be surrounded by people i love. i will have the CUTEST flower girls and ring bears EVER... my dress will be the most beautiful i ever wear... and the groom - is my prince. my helpmate... my love.
but bigger than that - i am already a princess. last sunday we celebrated easter... we celebrated Jesus. the man who is our Savior. who left His throne to lay in a feeding troth. who handed over his crown - to be nailed to a cross... but the story did not end with the grave... Jesus rose from the grave. beat death. and washed my sin away. making my a part of the royal family.
so here's my question... as you sit today and marvel over a royal wedding... to you have a seat in the biggest royal party yet to come? have to allowed Christ to make you a prince or princess? and if not why? why do you accept a common life - when a royal one is waiting for you...
