Sunday was a difficult day for me as my Grandma passed away earlier that morning. I have been blessed with a very close family both in proximity and personally. The family frequently got together for dinner and we all enjoyed our annual family vacation in Orlando. All of these times were attributed to my Grandma's love for her family and her generosity and commitment to have us together. I know the entire family will miss her.
I also know the entire family rejoices that Grandma Jominy is now in the presence of her Savior. While we will grieve the temporary time away from our beloved grandma, we know that when we see her again it will be glorious. For we will be reunited in eternal worship of our great and mighty God. All of our stuggles will have come to an end and sin and death will no longer seperate us.
So while Sunday was a bit challenging for me, I was reminded that the Lord's Day was moved form Saturday to Sunday because we celebrate Christ's resurrection. We have hope that just as God raised Jesus, so too will He raise all those who have put their trust in Him.
Thank you to all who have been praying for me and my family.

Bear,
Sorry to hear about your loss, but, as you say, it is also a time of rejoicing!
Cheers,

Thanks Ethan. I really don't know how those without faith in Christ go through the loss of a loved one. Hope carries us on.
