Death leaves a heartache only God can heal, love leaves a memory no one can steal. - Anon
The prophetess Anna lost her husband after only 7 years of marriage, but had God for a lifetime thereafter. WOW!
It happens all around us everyday - DEATH! But when it hits in our personal space and our loved ones, it's especially hard and painful at times to go on. But go on we must for God is at His work still, filling the void and reshaping our life, taking away the bitter sting and making the warm memories more vivid. So as we grieve, it's not overwhelming or as if we have no hope, we trust in the promise of the One who conquered it for us. So though today is 1 more day in life without them, we rejoice because it is also 1 day closer to that great re-union with Jesus and our loved ones. So live on and live well.
Until tomorrow......
