Rachel Ann Groff
We have been praying specifically for a different family member every night since Thanksgiving (November 25). We have done this alphabetically, using the names we call people by (Aunt, Mama, etc.). Today just happens to be the day for us to pray for Rachel. And it is also her Wedding Day!
In about 12 hours, she will legally become part of our family. But she has already been a real family member for some time now. One of our most precious memories is the night we spent with her and Andy and Mary-Kay at Moussam Lake on the Fourth of July the day before we flew to Estonia.
"Rachel was lovely in form, and beautiful." (Genesis 29:17)
Congratulations, Rachel & Andy! And welcome to the family!
Wedding Song (There Is Love)
He is now to be among you
At the calling of your heart
Rest assured this troubadour
Is acting on his part.
The union of your spirits here
Has caused him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is love, there is love.
Well a man shall leave his mother
And a woman leave her home
They shall travel on to where
The two shall be as one
As it was in the beginning
Is now until the end
Woman draws her life from man
And gives it back again
There is love, there is love.
Well then what's to be the reason
For becoming man and wife
Is it love that brings you here
Or love that brings you life
For if loving is the answer
Then who's the giving for
Do you believe in something
That you've never seen before
For there's love, Oh there's love.
Oh the marriage of your spirits here
Has caused him to remain
For whenever two or more of you
Are gathered in His name
There is love, ah there is love.
SASB prayers:
#28, For the Beauty of the Earth [this song has the lines "for the love which from our birth over and around us lies" and "for the joy of human love" which I really like]
#947, O God of Love
#948, O Perfect Love
