The Wedding Dress
I don’t know how to tell this tale
Which shows how God is good!
Though I know the story’s real
It can’t be understood!
The MK kids were giv’n a task
To see what God could do
To show they only need to ask
And He’d come charging through!
Swap a tube of bubbles
For anything you can
To comfort those with troubles
Was their only plan.
They prayed and swapped for ages
And their treasure did increase
Over several stages.
Was it now time to cease?
One girl had a prompting
To approach the Bridal Shop
It wasn’t very tempting
With what they had to swap!
They might get something petty
When they had their say.
Perhaps some bright confetti
Might come their way today!
Meanwhile in a hurry
A wedding had been planned
The couple had to scurry
With illness out of hand!
With just five days to go
There was no time to impress.
What to wear they did not know,
For sure, no wedding dress!
In the shop, they told their tale,
To the lady from the back.
To their surprise she did unveil
Three dresses on a rack!
They were told to take their pick
And of course they chose the best
And indeed it was no trick
So they felt very blessed!
Back at base they told the tale
And everyone was stunned
Should they put the dress for sale
To boost the youth team fund?
They prayed and waited for advice
For the whole thing was odd.
Surely it must have felt nice
To leave the choice to God!
Then they heard the saga
Of the Bride without a dress
And though I may be gaga
Even I could guess!
This was part of God’s great plan
To give the dress away!
When it’s beyond the will of man
You only have to pray!
The Bride was duly dressed in white
Upon her special day.
It really is a special sight
When Jesus gets His way!
This is a wondrous story
Which can’t be understood.
All powerful in His Glory
Our God is really good!
