I feel as though when things seem to be bright and uplifted, they suddenly fall and I begin to be tested. It never seems to be the smalls things, rather the really BIG things that require me to have the upmost faith in my God! Well, these past two days have been just that. Yesterday, I received a phone call with a bride canceling their services with us for their wedding. I was stunned and couldn't believe it. Although, the wedding was for next year and I feel confident, that I can hopefully book the date again to make up for our loss. Well.... if that wasn't bad enough... we received TWO [2] phone calls back to back with 2 other couples canceling their weddings altogether. First of all, I feel horrible for them. One being a really sweet couple that I just fell in love with. It broke my heart to hear this news, truly it did. And another scary part... both were my upcoming weddings for THIS year! :(
Needless to say, I just lost 3 weddings in two days. This is not a good thing. Weddings are what help put food on the table and pay for the day to day expenses. I'm just having a really hard time dealing with this right now. I'm trying so hard to remain calm and trust that God is mighty and He's always there for us. This is my time when God seeks us and tests our faith in Him. I feel it Lord, really, I'm feeling it!
Please pray for us as we struggle to make up for these HUGE losses. Its going to hit us hard financially and we need your prayers and encouragement.
Until then, Brantley
