All of these thoughts and prayers mean more than you can think. This incident has brought back memories to me because of our family losing our saintly believing mother in 1996 to an auto accident Meanwhile, this is such a delicate and emotional issue for all of us right now. Full of ironies. This good lady had testified in church on Sunday morning how the Lord was helping her get over the final hurdles and heal her of the spirit of grief over the untimely loss of her young daughter about five years ago. After church that morning, she was on her way to lead a grief support group for others who have lost loved ones when the accident occurred. She had progressed enough to be able to lead others. Who knows how God can weave all this togethwer and make it work for the good? Only He knows. I'm about to leave for Sunday school and service and I'm sure church will be different this morning. Our pastor and his wife has known this lady Mary and her husband and family for many many yearts and were very close in their friendship and their walk in the Lord. God is a goodmaster of everything. I have been singing "Thou Art Worthy" and it has been helping. I've been telling the Lord I'm singing on behalf of the family, whatever that means I don't know but I have been doing it as I am edified also.Bless you good folks. Come Lord Jesus. Deliver us finally fron this evil and accident prone age. All tears will be wiped away eventually. It has not entered into our hearts what God has in store for those who are His own.

We had a very good service on Sunday. There were tears and hugs and the worship was deeper than usual. This did not turn out the way we expected after almost four weeks but I still don't think the faith and belief we had came from our own souls. There has been a warm, lifting presence during this whole ordeal. Word is coming of how the family gathered around her and spoke to her released her to go and be with her Savior and departed loved ones WHICH IS FAR BETTER. Which is far better isa the theme the Holy Spirit set during our service. A wake and final services will be Friday and Saturday.Thou art worthy O Lord and you are a very very good God and Father. Thank you for your unspeakable gift.
