What a strange spring we have had.
Rain, hail and multiple snow storms. The last day of school we wore winter
coats. I went to two graduation parties. One I froze at and the other I melted.
And life moves forward.
June brings Father’s Day. June
brings a longing for my dad. I think to myself, I wish I would have hugged him
one more time. But I did at every opportunity.
I wish I could see him again.
But I saw him as much as I could when he was here.
So it just hurts. It hurts
that we live in a world that embraced sin and turned from God. It hurts that
sin brings death. Only God brings life. Each of us every day, we are slowly
dying. We live in a sin filled world –always turning away from God and pursuing
things of this world that are fleeting.
A friend of mine told me the
doctors have given her one year to live. The nastiest of words, cancer will
take her life. She does not want to leave this world. I don’t blame her.
This world even as it is -- is a beautiful place. Our families are so dear and so amazing. The ties that bind - bind magically. And life even in a sin filled world has its beauty.
