Wonderful Hope

Also on my mind... are the less-recent losses in my life.

My sister lost her first-born (and only son,) when he was only three days old. He had a rare disorder where he was born with no kidneys. I can't wait to meet him some day and to be with him as he grows up.
Spencer- RIP 2004


In 2008 my cousin died from a tragic accident at home. He left behind his wife and his one-year old daughter. He was such a fun and loving guy, I'm excited to also see him once again :-)
Thad- RIP 2008


Even those who have lived a long life are still hard to let go. My Grandma AND Grandpa died on the same day within 8 hours of each other. My grandpa died from complications to surgery and my grandma died of cancer. I'm very thankful that we got to go visit them about a week before that day.


As a christian, I'm so glad that we have this wonderful hope. I cling to that with everything I have.

Revelation 21:3-5
And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.”
Someday Very Soon :-)
