Sadly, I attended another funeral today. One of my sister-in-laws, who is my age, lost her mom to cancer. Her mom found out on May 3 that she had stage IV colon cancer that had spread into her liver. She was admitted to the hospital on May 8 and passed away on May 17. This sister-in-law lost her dad to Parkinson’s five years ago. My heart is broken for her. Fortunately, both of her parents were Christians. They knew Jesus as their Lord and Savior and therefore, are spending eternity in Heaven.
I rode to the funeral with my youngest brother and his fiance. On the way to their home, I saw God’s glory shining through the clouds. I immediately thought of how God’s mercies are new every morning. Lamentations 3:22 – 23 says, “Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail. They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.”
As we were headed back home this afternoon, I was looking on Facebook and came across a picture that fits perfectly with my blog, so of course I have to share it:
