Hebrews 12: 29 - 'Our God is a consuming fire...'
I thank my God that we were able to witness this momentous occasion. My brother (Casi), and my sister (Veronica), tied the knot this morning! What a beautiful story of integrity, fidelity, and prayerful persistence! According to testimony...Veronica received a word from Pastor Dillard October 2014 that her prayers would be answered and the one she has been praying for would be by her side not too long from now...this has actually come true!! Through fasting, prayer, counseling and perseverance...that prayer was answered in a big way!

Casi, a man of the penal system, made some serious decisions to turn his life around and give Jesus his life. This took a lot of soul - searching, and a lot of humility; usually a man of great pride and arrogance, now had to come to grips with the truth that he was in desperate need of the blood of Jesus. His love for Veronica had surfaced, but her commitment to Christ through him for a loop...after he made a choice to change, God began working in his life in a powerful way - and no longer did he wish to live life the old way, he decided to surrender to Jesus Christ...and the rest is history!! God is powerful, and all of their hopes and dreams in Christ are not a reality.
Romans 8:25-28
But if we hope for what we do not see, we eagerly wait for it with perseverance.
Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. Now He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He makes intercession for the saints according to the will of God. And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
My prayer is, their wedding, and life leading up to their marriage would serve as an inspiration to young couples as well as men and women who seek to enter into a marital relationship - hopefully, to do it the right way, and walk in the blessing God has for us all.
