Today's reading: Matthew 9

One Word of Christ that grabs my attention today is bridegroom. Jesus asks, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them?" (v. 15). The implication, of course, is that Jesus is the divine bridegroom. I'm thinking about this, too, because (spoiler alert) it comes up in this Sunday's readings, too. What a gift that our Savior has come to make us His own!
