Two months. Has it really been two months? A moment and an eternity all at once. I don't even know how to process it. My thoughts and feelings are like a broken record... the sorrow, the longing, and the missing. How do you fill such a vast void? How many times do I wish for just one more day to hold his hand or bury my head into his chest? How endless the number of years that stretch out ahead until I can see him again.... I just can't wrap my head or heart around it. Two months. Forever. Until we meet again.
But as it is written, "What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him." - 1 Corinthians 2:9
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?" John 11:25-26
I can't believe it either. I was just saying to my mom that even now, it still doesn't seem any more real.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how, Kelly, but I do know that because our Lord is faithful and just, he WILL find a way to carry you through the times ahead, and fill the gaps with love in the times that you feel low and need Him even more. Be it the distractions of new day to day things happening, or little joys He brings that you couldn't have even imagined happening to give you that extra something you needed that day. Praise God for new mercies each day and for your faith in Him. You are that much more treasured to Him than the little sparrow, so may you and the kids feel His reminders of love for you each day to carry you to the next!
Love you!
