Singles and Couples – Where Were You Married
Where were you married? I was married in an outdoor tabernacle on a wooden pew when I was 12. Oh, I’m not talking about when I married my earthly husband, Keith. I’m talking about when Jesus took me as His bride. I was at a youth camp and the Holy Spirit convicted me during the evening service that I was a sinner in need of a Savior. I acknowledged my sin and confessed Jesus as my Lord and Savior. He drew me close. He took my hand in His nail scarred hand. My Jesus betrothed me to Him in love and forgiveness before the Heavenly Father and angels. One day, I will see Him face to face. He is coming for me just as Matthew 25:6 says, “Behold, the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.” Now, I’d love for you to hit the reply button and tell me where you were married.
Jesus, You are the BRIDEGROOM of our dreams. Thank You for loving us and sacrificing Your life so that we are a cleansed, pure spotless bride.
I was “married” at Sunset Baptist Church at Mountain Home when I was 7. The sermon was on Revelation 3:20 and I felt God standing at my hearts door waiting for me to open it up and let him in. I remember the next day at school I felt so clean and I shared my experience with my friends at school on the playground. I was baptized in the baptistery at first Baptist Church of Kerrville.
How wonderful, LaVerne. Thank you for sharing!
