How much does a wedding cost? In Sri Lanka weddings areso costly that families usually start saving money as soon as a daughter is born. K. Selvakumar, a 51-year-old plantation worker said that he has saved US$5,000 in his lifetime to pay for his only daughter’s wedding in July, leaving nothing as he retires.

This story reminds me of the wedding of the Lamb in which the Church or the believers are invited by Christ the Bridegroom. “Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding feast of the Lamb!” “These are the true words of God” (Revelation 19:9). In fact, God has prepared the heavenly wedding for every believer–the bride as well as the guest. We are free to attend God’s wedding as long as we are true believers of Christ.
