For the LORD God is a sun and shield: the LORD will give grace and glory: no good thing will he withhold from them that walk uprightly. O LORD of hosts,blessed is the man that trusteth in thee. Psalm 84:11-12
Jehovah is bounteous in His nature--to give is His delight. His gifts are precious beyond measure, and are as freely given as the light of the sun!
...The little conjunction "and" in this verse is the diamond rivet binding the present with the future! Grace and glory always go together. God has married them--and none can divorce them! The Lord will never deny a soul eternal glory--to whom He has freely given His saving grace.
Indeed, glory is nothing more than grace in its heavenly dress; grace in full bloom; grace like autumn fruit--mellow and perfected....
...Oh, rare promise of a faithful God! Two golden links of one celestial chain! Whoever has grace--shall surely gain glory!
Charles Haddon Spurgeon

Grace and glory.Particularly relevant for weddings.Hey listen to this! We've just been emailed from Helen Rubio's sister to say she has had a vision about the conference this weekend here. Apparently saints old and new and angels too,are arranging seats in glory ready for a grandstand view of what is about to take place.
When I heard this I was feeling that something similar is occurring your end too.
There's a lot of glory leaks out of heaven around weddings.
I AM praying.
Praying for you and your motherheart tonight. What a wonderful wedding you will have!
