A Promise
Will life return to normal? I can't answer those doubts and nagging questions, but I can point you to One who knows about our situation. Remember the promise mentioned above. He promises to strengthen and help. He reminds us not to fear.

This Good Friday is the first time in a long time that I won't go to church and contemplate what Jesus did for me. But I can do it at home, too.
We wait for the time when we can move about freely. Get closer to our families and not feel the heaviness of this loss. When we can return to our jobs, and churches, and friends. Until then, we wait. Together.
Today and the days to come are unsteady and unpredictable. We don't know the future.
The same God is still there, waiting to give peace to those who trust.....
We choose to enjoy the time granted to us, grateful for every shared instant.
I will savor those words and the wispy moments spent with two people who are both in heaven now.
I was astounded that the God of the Universe, reached down into my doubting heart and ministered to me! Right then in my pajamas and tear drenched face, I got a glimpse of God!
If you aren't grieving a loss, perhaps you can encourage someone who is, by inviting them for a bite to eat so they aren't alone for a meal--a welcome change. Or drop by for a visit on a lonely, quiet evening. Invite them to attend church with you--and pick them up so they don't have to walk into the building by themselves.
Our life is like the morning fog.......
