Today we went to the wedding of two of our Chinese friends who often come to Studies. It was a Chr-stian wedding which was awesome! We (all the FOC teachers) got to sing To G-d be the Glory, In Chr-st Alone, and another song for the ceremony. I was very inspired by how courageous they were to have a Chr-stian wedding, amongst all of their Chinese friends and family who were mainly not Chr-stian. Such a statement on their part. "We are Chr-stian, and we are proud of it!" There was a sermon, pr-yer, and the singing of the songs.
It took place in a hotel, and in typical Chinese fashion despite being a Chr-stian ceremony (people smoking, talking during the ceremony, and with a massive feast of Octopus, frog, turtle, and other foods). I was very inspired by their wedding though, and how they showed everyone there that they are living their lives to His glory, having Chr-st at the center of their lives together.
A good thing that should be remembered daily, He is the center of our lives. Even if the crowd opposes you, you should not only fearfully make know the mystery of the G-spel, but also faithfully live to His glory.
