Getting married today

I am giving away my daughter in marriage today. I am blessed that she and the young man are sound in the faith and desire to covenant together with God. Pray for Ann and Elliott. Pray for me that I don't blubber like a baby today.

Thats right, blubber like a man who has spent years and years looking after a precious child and guiding her in the faith so that today could happen. So congrats on a job well done!

James,

Congratulations. May their marriage be a testimony to God's wonderful grace.

Side note: As a dad to three daughters, there will be plenty of blubbering in my future.
