At an #orthodoxwedding the priest reads from the Gospel of St. John, chapter 2, the wedding at Cana.

Although I’ve read and heard this passage many times, as I stood before my bridegroom yesterday, in the presence of God, and heard my priest read this to us, I understood something for the first time.

Both Jacob and I have been through more than many people have in their lifetimes. We have lost children, we have been in abusive marriages, we have struggled and we have longed to have a partner in life to walk the path of salvation with us.

At times, I have wished I had found this in my youth. But as I listened, and Jake held my hand, I knew this was the best wine. The wine miraculously wrought. The best saved for last. And it was worth it all.

You may have noticed the name of this account has changed from The Iconic Feminine to Faith and Light. Faith is my daughter, and Light will be my new name. It is also my new reality: Overcoming an abusive relationship, a long and painful past, and finally embracing a healthy and kind life of peace and being partners on the path of salvation.

The entire focus of my life has shifted to the light that darkness can not comprehend. #FaithAndLightBlog #orthodoxchristianity #orthodoxchurch #sacramentalmarriage
