Liz and Esteban, I have been praying about what to write for your wedding post and I can’t shake the lyrics of Oceans by Hillsong United.
You call me out upon the waters
The great unknown where feet may fail
And there I find You in the mystery
In oceans deep
My faith will stand
And I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Your grace abounds in deepest waters
Your sovereign hand
Will be my guide
Where feet may fail and fear surrounds me
You’ve never failed and You won’t start now
So I will call upon Your name
And keep my eyes above the waves
When oceans rise
My soul will rest in Your embrace
For I am Yours and You are mine
Spirit lead me where my trust is without borders
Let me walk upon the waters
Wherever You would call me
Take me deeper than my feet could ever wander
And my faith will be made stronger
In the presence of my Savior
I will call upon Your name
Keep my eyes above the waves
My soul will rest in Your embrace
I am Yours and You are mine
Your love story began because you both were led by God to go on a missions trip to Ecuador. You were worlds apart and God still had a plan for you to meet! You have spent the last 5 years courting each other in hopes that God would lead you into marriage one day. We were so blessed to be part of that day, in more ways than you know! God is amazing and is so big! His plans for us in the ups and the downs makes my brain explode. I am still blown away that we were strangers before your wedding day and somehow God connected our stories into one. We hope to see you guys again soon and we can’t wait to see the plans He has in store for you!
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on me and come and pray to me, and I will listen to you. You will seek me and find me when you seek me with all your heart.” Jeremiah 29:11-13Malibu Gathering….Gorgeous!Ceremony – Malibu Gathering
