Philippians 4:6-7

I was looking at my friend Hannah's wedding page, http://www.hargerwedding.com/

and reading the his and her story section, I hope she wouldn't mind me putting this here!
anyways, as I read and finished reading the verse, the longest string of tingles went through me..the good mmhmm feeling ones...even after as I re-read it 2 more times...

This last part of her story just reminded me of how important it is to have someone that will spiritually lead and uplift you, and walk with you in Christ. It was also encouraging to read that she trusted God and He was faithful.

I need to constantly remind myself of the verse in this funny weird time of transition through life stages and other things..

" I cannot even articulate all the ways God has blessed me through John William. I think one of the biggest things God has taught me is patience. We have known we wanted to marry each other for 3 ½ years now (it will be almost 4 when we actually get married), and that has been one of the hardest things I have ever had to face. Early on, when we knew we had a long journey in front of us, John William gave me this verse to stick to:
"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus." -Philippians 4:6-7
I have had to cling to those verses so many times throughout our relationship and just trust that God's peace would truly guard my heart. The Lord is faithful..."
-Hannah
