Almost a year
We are hard pressed on every side,
but not crushed;
perplexed, but not in despair;
persecuted, but not abandoned;
struck down, but not destroyed.
~2 Corinthians 4:8,9~
In less than a week,
it will already be one year... I can't even grasp ahold of that. I can remember every word, every emotion, everything of that early Sunday-morning phone call. There is so much of a disconnect in my head that even though I know it's a reality, I sometimes have trouble believing it. I think it has been hard for me to accept since we're so far away. In my mind, it just feels like we'll go home for family vacation and all be together again. Yet, I know he is gone... but only from this earthly life. I am confident that we will be together again. And one day I, too, will wake up to find God's glory defined!Only with God is it possible that we've found the peace in the sorrow.
You've spoken softly through the storm
I've heard Your voice and I've felt the calm
I stand only because You've given me faith to walk
Only because
You carried me
You carried me through it all
And I believe
You'll carry me all the way home

Now I know why you were on my mind and heavy on my heart this morning. I am praying for you and the rest of your family as you go through this hard anniversary.
You, Pinky, and the kids have been on my mind constantly lately, especially now that's it October. I'll be praying for you as you approach the one year anniversary. What a testimony you all are to God's grace and strength He gives during times of trial.
Thinking of you at this difficult time.
