Always a Bridesmaid, Never a Bride! That says expresses a longing that is never fulfilled, or it refers to one who has been left behind. Pastor Greg Smith preaches from the parable of the foolish bridesmaids who were not prepared for the coming of the groom. It is foolishness to be left out of a wedding celebration because you weren't prepared; but how much more to be left behind when King Jesus comes for His Bride!
