A dear friend of mine, a person who is a part of my heart, grieves today for the loss of her friend. A woman who fought a battle with cancer and is now in pain no more.
Cancer sucks.
Death too young sucks.
This friend of mine grieves this month for the loss of her mother. A pain that is in it's 6th year and will go on the rest of her life.
The loss of a parent sucks.
I just don't have words for it. I really don't.
It makes me hope these words are true:
Lamentations 3:31-32
31 For no one is abandoned
by the Lord forever.
32 Though he brings grief, he also shows compassion
because of the greatness of his unfailing love.
Also - my heart breaks for this young child tonight
