My heart is aching for a family in our church who has lost their wife and mom. She was a wonderful person with a great sense of humor and loved God deeply. It is a bittersweet, because I know she is sitting with Jesus, and yet, I feel for her family members still here. To have her one minute and not the next is brutal. On this week when we are celebrating what we are thankful for, a family is grieving over their loss, a pain so deep and so acute.
Today, as I lift this family in prayer, I hope that you hold the ones you love close. Nothing is guaranteed, and I am reminded of that again.
