What a privilege to could have been part of Bastiaan & Elmandi’s wedding in Hazyview, where she grew up.\u00a0 Hazyview is such a beautiful part of South Africa and I’m sure every guest already felt blessed just by undertaking the journey down to Hazyview and spending the weekend there in the lavish green bush setting of Umbhaba Lodge<\/a> (meaning ‘love’ in Zulu).\u00a0 But then, as if the setting wasn’t beautiful and inspiring enough, Bastiaan & Elmandi shared their wedding day in such a personal way with their close family and friends, that no one could return home without being inspired and spiritually enriched by the shared experience of their ‘love’ declaration & celebration in the presence of God.\u00a0 It was clearly evident that they as a couple are set apart for God and that they are ready and fully aware of the responsibility in this journey.<\/p>\n

Bastiaan and Elmandi, thank you for an unforgettable day spent together with you!\u00a0 We pray that your walk with God will be solidly founded in His Word as your only authority. Study it and teach it, completely depending on His power & Word, not your own.\u00a0 God bless you, Lucinda & Petrus<\/p>\n

Proverbs 16:3 – Commit [total trust and submission to the will of God] your work to the Lord, and your plans will be established.<\/p>\n
