Sincerely Yours #56

Let the festivities begin! The date was May 21, 1983 and the event was a wedding. Not just any wedding but that of my future sister-in-law, Ellen Mainse to a very special Christian Arab man, Nizar Shaheen. It's just the type of celebration Jesus talks about in today's reading. He's still speaking with His disciples, preparing them for how to live in anticipation for His return. But in these verses, Jesus tells the parable of the ten bridesmaids.
