It is rarely good when you’re awake to see today turn into tomorrow. But often in those late night hours God does a doing on my soul that — albeit painful to arrive at — I am grateful it was done.
And this weekend I needed the reminder that death’s sting hurts because my heart longs for longevity and life abundant.
“He has made everything beautiful in its time.
He has also set eternity in the hearts of men..
…yet they cannot fathom what God has done from beginning to end.”
Loss on any scale opens our hearts again to griefs mourned in the past; but my heart sings as I am soberly reminded that I was created for eternity and I cannot fathom the loving brilliance of my Heavenly Father’s method.
How good it is to trust that nothing could separate me from the love of God.
