Memorial Day is always noteworthy for me and my girls. Next Thursday marks the third year of missing their father, my husband. So many thoughts run through my mind. The journey of loss takes on various emotions. The strongest feeling, at first, was emptiness. In a split second, I would forget he departed forever. I imagined things I needed to talk to him about when he got back home. My mind is realistic now. He's not coming back.

Hi Mary,
ReplyDeleteThis song is very encouraging to me today. I haven't heard it before, so I really listened to the words as I read along...it says much about real life, doesn't it? Knowing, even though not always feeling, that God is there is sometimes all we can stand on...and amazingly, it is enough!
God bless,
Mary
