"Re: Symbolism of the Royal Wedding I've been thinking on"
Dear Doves.
Most of us have commented on the Royal Wedding, however, I believe this
one has some special significance for all who watch and wait for our
coming Messiah.
Catherine Middleton walked into Westminster Abbey a "commoner" and came
out as part of the "royal monarchy". In this she was "grafted in" to
the Royal lineage so to speak in the same way Gentiles have been
grafted into the fig tree (Israel). We go to God "common, lowly
and in sin" and we come out clothed in robes of righteousness - newly
grafted into the line of God's people. What an incredibly
generous and loving God we serve.
The only comparison that doesn't match is - the wedding of the Bride
and Jesus will be ONE MILLION TIMES MORE stunning and victorious.
However, I do believe HE is near.....
Watching, waiting, praying, believing......
With love
