With Sadness





My heart has been heavy this week.  My beautiful Goddaughter suffered a tragedy in her life.  Her boy friend of just a few months died in his sleep over this past weekend and she was the one to discover.

It has been a week of much prayer for both families.  And more so because this young man, only 26, was not a man of faith.  My Goddaughter was bringing it to him though and so we ask God's mercy on his soul.

We can ask ourselves many questions why situations like this happen.  Truly, we will not have the answer until we meet God ourselves.  But, in our human form and with our human thoughts and faith, we believe that " all things work for good for those that love Him".

And so we offer up this trial for the glory of our God and pray His Will Be Done.

  3. But our God is a God of mercy, and only He knows how He may have revealed Himself to this young man in his last moments. We must have Hope.

  6. I am so very sorry! We do not understand these things, most certainly. Will keep the newly departed and those who loved him in my prayers and lighting of candles. Memory Eternal! May God remember this young man in His Kingdom...
