Inspiring Words

I cherish the opportunity to interact with our Surviving Families on Facebook and through this Blog. When we take the time to share what is on our mind and in our soul we not only help ourselves, but we give others the freedom to do the same. Recently I read the post below and it touched me on so many levels and I asked Sarah for permission to share this on our newsletter.
               "Once again I find myself surrendering to the only constant in this life. Jesus says he will never leave us and I know first hand how true that is. I would give anything to have Ryan here with us. This is not how it is supposed to be. When another child says "my dad is in afghanistan", the words "my dad's dead" are so foreign.

Yet, if what we are living for is a lifetime of worship with the King, we can not forget; that while one year ago today caused great sadness on Earth, in Heaven there was a great celebration. Happy 1 Year in Forever honey. Miss you lots!"
