2 months...

Today marks 2 months since mom died. This song puts feelings into words when words are so few...



"Homesick" - Mercy Me

Wow! what an amazing expression of the thoughts and feelings of those of us who love Joy!
I still have not wrapped my head and heart around her leaving earth for eternity. I often read this blog hoping that this was all a bad dream and that I'll stop in at the store for a chat with her like we did as friends/coworkers. Of course, my head says she is gone from us but my heart has NOT caught up with the facts.
I still miss her so much more than I can express. . .hence my silence until now.
I believe that she is whole and with Jesus, but we wanted her to live on endlessly, healed and alive here with us. She was too young to leave us.
Thankfully our Father comforts each of us uniquely and like the rest of you, I really need His ongoing comfort. His Word is true and His mercies never fail. He is faithful. However, I am very human and I truly miss my dear, precious friend. Joy's life was so impacting and I miss our times together. How much more you, as her dear family, must miss her!!!
My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Elizabeth said it all in her comment. I think often of you guys and still pray for God's comfort for each of you individually as you feel ache from the loss of Joy in so many ways. Please know you are surrounded by friends and prayer...and most of all, His presence.
