I am with you. I can’t even imagine what life would be like without faith.

I agree we really can’t fully comprehend it, only honor them instead.

Thanks for the invitation to sit for a minute and remember. I did. It’s very sobering indeed.

But we know our God accomplishes the impossible all the time. Perhaps the good will be what Rev. Pilarski prayed: that this will become a transformational event in the history of humankind. May that transformation include a revival of faith in God, the only One who can see us through every tragedy, every challenge. I can’t imagine life without him.

He’s the only One we can count on not to leave or change. what peace we get from Him … even and especially in the midst of this mess.

I knew I had to write about this and honor them in a very small way by prayer and words. Thanks Martha!

Yes, let us keep praying for the families who have lost loved ones to this tragic virus, no matter how long it takes.
Blessings, Jean!
