today is my 1st time to an cath holy matrimony.. it's so nice to see all the amplify friends again, and cassilda (bride) is so GORGEOUS! i mean, leo n cass are so smart together.. just one look, u know they are made-in-heaven couple.
personally i'm so blessed by Fr William's homily.. bringing me back to a verse i once harped on - let us love one another, for love comes from God..God is Love (1 John 4:7-8)...
the world has deemed marriage to be a private affair between 2 persons(ie. no fuss issue), a trivial process in life (ie. get-over-n-done-with attitude), a mutual 'understanding' relationship (ie. who-cares-about-others mindset), and even has this 'trial' period of cohabitation. But is it really the meaning of marriage? .. personally, marriage holds so much more significance! the very fact is marriage is sacred - cos God is in the covenant of love! how can it be a private fuss-free affair, when it's meant to be an public declaration of love vows n commitment, under God's witness and blessing? when God is love and love is God, how can it be on 'probation' - cos God is faithful and everlasting!!
cant tell you how much i've been blessed by this reminder on God's Word, but I AM! looking at the newly-weds, i know they have fully understood the true significance of marriage. they will indeed be fruitful in their love and bear fruits -physically and spiritually for the Lord. what a living testimony of God's faithful love still exists in this world! what an honour to know this couple who loves God so fervently and his people passionately!
