It’s difficult to write this morning. I feel as though this blog is turning into my needs. As I write this however, I instantly recognize that our journeys have times like this so I will just be honest. I never knew how much my brother means to me until this grave news has hit regarding their son. I had offered to put this prayer need out to our church congregation and yesterday they asked if I would do it. This is now done and I went to meet with my prayer warrior Lois yesterday afternoon so she too could be praying. She knows my brother quite well. She reminded me of heaven’s magnificence and freedom from this earth’s sinful pain.

Last night my oldest grandson who is here until Wednesday invited Kathy and I to go to the court house tomorrow morning to witness his wedding. He and his girlfriend decided to wed now and do a ceremony when it fits his airforce schedule. This was somewhat of a surprize but it does make sense when you know what his next year’s schedule looks like. They have been together for most of 3 years and they want to make the best of her being with him as much as possible. They want to honor God with their decisions. They are 26 and 27 so they have thought this through.

It’s difficult to process the pain my nephew is experiencing and the joy of my grandson in the same timeframe. My own emotions don’t know what to do with this. I’m just going to do whatever my part needs to be and thank God He is everyone’s anchor for they all know Him.
