Praying, dear friend. Every time you and your family come to mind. Which is often.

Praying since I heard, Amy. Especially today.

There’s this song David Phelps sings and all I can do is picture your daddy singing it right.now….

“See over there, there’s a mansion, oh, that’s prepared just for me,
Where I will live with my savior eternally.

No more night. No more pain.
No more tears. Never crying again.
And praises to the great “I AM.”
We will live in the light of the risen Lamb.”

No More Night – David Phelps

Although I do not know Amy, I know the pain of losing a father. My father graduated 15 years ago. I await the day I cross that same threshold to be reunited with him.

When we have lost a loved one, we may also look at it this way: Of the roses that climb the garden wall, some will blossom on the other side, being hidden from our view, but the vine keeps them all joined together.

And so it is with the wall of death. It merely hides the other side; it does not divide. Our loved ones who have gone on to be with Jesus may be hidden from our view, but they have just blossomed on the other side.

And, if we, who remain here, are also in Christ, then we are all united together, because the Vine has kept us together.

May the Lord encompass the whole family with peace and comfort.

Praying. I wish there was more I could do or say, but … well, the One to whom we pray can do all things. May He comfort you richly today and all the days after.

Amy,
So sorry to hear about your father’s passing. Thank you so much for giving us all glimpses of him through your writing, prayers and struggle. Your faith has helped enrich us all as your family has faced this time. Thank you for portraying honesty and God-dependence throughout. It is instructive for everyone facing hardship, trial, illness and even death.

We are lifting up you and your family during this time of grief.

Amy, I have been praying for you & your family since Sun. when Suz got your message during our class time. At the time, I thought, “How amazing God is to allow us to pray for others who we’ve never met yet feel like we know because we’ve shared in their joys & sorrows through prayer!” I’m especially praying that the sweet memories you have of your dad will come at those times when you most need them, & that you will have the perfect peace that only Jesus can give you. Thanks, Suz for the sweet glimpse you have given us of this dear man.
