WEDDING NIGHTMARE

The same funny mother-of-the-bride who revealed another MIB’s corsage stabbing Wednesday also told about her daughter’s recent pre-wedding nightmare.

For real, she is going to have eight bridesmaids. For real, the fittings had been done and her mother was going to pick the dresses up when they were ready and deliver them to each bridesmaid.

Well, this bride-to-be had a horrible dream – that she saw an old grade-school friend of hers from the neighborhood wearing one of her bridesmaid’s dresses.

Whaaaat? She wasn’t a bridesmaid!

But in this dream, the mother of the bride-to-be had decided, by her own volition, that this OTHER girl was a closer friend to her daughter, so she just gave HER the bridesmaid’s dress, and the OTHER bridesmaid was just out of luck.

Issues! Weddings bring out issues, don’t they? Look on the bright side – maybe the dress just wasn’t that girl’s best color, anyway.

Prayer request: There’s a faithful wife, Geri, asking for prayer for her husband Mark’s very serious heart condition, but assuring everyone that “God will get us through this.” We acknowledge Your sovereign power over this situation, Lord, and lift up their faith to You as a precious jewel which should be rewarded. Mark’s ventricles are only pumping blood to the rest of his body at 10%. It needs to be at least 25% to qualify for bypass surgery. Therefore, he is in desperate need of a heart transplant. Their young adult son has moved back home to help in his care so Geri can be at work. We come to Your Throne, Physician Lord, for the heart transplant to happen and healing to take place to restore precious blood flow. It is only through the Heart of Your Son, and His blood, that any of us can have ultimate healing. (John 6:55)
