8 Weeks

It’s been 8 weeks since this girl entered the arms of Jesus with this same big beautiful smile. I miss her more than words can describe. The ache in my heart is still very raw. It seems like it was yesterday when our world fell apart but also years at the same time. God is still very present in the midst of our pain, even when those feelings circle back around to anger. I’ve learned He can take it all, it doesn’t offend Him or hurt Him. He just stands there and listens and then catches me when I fall into His arms and cry. I’m so thankful we have a Father who is ready and willing to take everything from us and carry it for us. I’m thankful that death doesn’t win, that we have the hope of eternity, that He still sits on His throne and that one day soon He will come back and crush Satan once and for all. Oh what a day that will be to see the final victory. Until then we step into whatever He places before us and continue to spread His Love, His Forgiveness, His Hope and His Freedom!!
