...that is how death came to our sister, Margrit...when she least expected it. And we were all in shock! Painful shock! Three days later...the same. Sister Roseann called home...just days apart.
The first thought after I "de-numbed" was: why is the Lord picking on us? No matter when or how death touches us, it is not easy to go through it all. Sometimes it is difficult to accept. Sometimes it us difficult to understand why. Yet we know the Lord does know best. The Lord sees the bigger picture, the whole picture.
This week we will celebrate All Saints day and All Souls day....remembering all our family members, friends, peers, people with whom we have worked or journeyed who have gone ahead of us. Our intercessors. Our friends whom we should not let "rest in peace" but keep them busy helping us. They can "run" to the Lord with our needs...yes, and even our wants! Remember they have nothing to do but praise God and "flit" around in eternal joy!
