Grief Wiped Away

And God will wipe every tear from their eyes.
There will be no more death or mourning,
or crying or pain,
for the old order of things has passed away.
Revelation 21:4
I have to play for another funeral this morning - yet another saint at church who has gone to his rest.  This gentleman has been bedridden for a long time, and one could say that it is better that he is no longer suffering, but it is never, ever that easy for those left behind who loved and cherished him.

Please say a prayer this morning for Rachel and her family as they begin the process of living without their beloved husband, father, grandfather.  And whisper a "thank you" for this day of life that you have been given to enjoy.  Some individuals have a long time to process the certainty of their death.  Others are snatched away without even a moment's notice.  Live life to the fullest today, bind close to your heart those whom you love, and praise God for your many blessings.
