The business of "wedding coordination"

Did you know that we are wedding coordinators? No, we are not leaving the ministry nor are we taking on another wedding project...but this morning, I came across someone's response to her life calling, and she said "to serve as a 'wedding coordinator' - helping the Bride (of Christ) to get ready for the Wedding!" Wow! Although our family has been in the life business of preparing the Church for our great, heavenly, eternal wedding banquet, we are officially going to call ourselves "wedding coordinators" from this day on. So, when people ask me what my vocation is, I will no longer say "homemaker", but "wedding coordinator". Ted can call himself the "wedding photographer" - one who captures the beauty of the Church preparing, walking down the aisle to await the Bridegroom.

How are you preparing yourself and others to meet our beloved Bridegroom? Is our wedding day consuming our lives so that we are actively pursuing to be the excellent and pure bride of Christ?

"Hallelujah! For our Lord Almighty reigns. Let us rejoice and be glad and give Him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given her to wear...Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!" -Revelation 19:6-9
