What do you do when it rains on your wedding ceremony?

Some say that rain on your wedding day brings good luck and can actually be very romantic.
When we married in July 1982, it was very hot. Our ceremony was in the nicely air-conditioned First Baptist Church in Bowling Green. We had our own little wedding shower that day. I don’t believe in “luck” and everything about our wedding was already romantic. But I can definitively say that our lives together started out really “steamy!”
This is wedding season. And rain moved across the bluegrass this evening. So for those who tied the knot in this mess, I have this to say. “Look for the rainbow!”
God created the rainbow as a sign of promise. He made a covenant with Noah that never again would He destroy the earth by flood. He has kept that promise for a very long time.
Rainbows show us vivid, almost electric colors. They show us God’s majesty. They remind us of His love. Even after a wedding shower rainbows declare that there is hope in the Lord.
LORD, thank you for giving us your covenant of marriage. Thank you for your well-kept promises for our provision. And when we experience a storm, thank you for your rainbow!
