Shortly after Meditation VI I posted this response to the pain being experienced by a handful of friends.
Two months later, I'm still in the same passage of scripture.
And I need it now as much as I wanted to share it with others then.
Mourning and Comfort.

Two months later, I'm still in the same passage of scripture.
And I need it now as much as I wanted to share it with others then.
Mourning and Comfort.
Matthew 5:4 says
"Blessed are those who mourn,
for they will be comforted."
Mourning has followed us to South Korea.
Two times now. In the form of loss.
My Grandpa Al.
Mike's god-father and unlce Rick.
The two men we've said good-bye to across the oceans are two men who
most desired to be next to the Lord.
My heart rejoices that they have made it.
My heart desires to carry out their memory. their legacy.
by living an honorable life
by seeking the Lord
by loving Him first
by extending love, grace and blessing
The Message rephrases this verse in the following way:
Blessed are you when you feel you've lost what is most dear to you for you will be
embraced by the One most dear to you.
