Amazing Grace

Death is never easy - especially unexpected and untimely death. My heart is heavy today for Scott, Jessica, Jordan, Lauren, and Joseph who are now faced with so many uncertainties following the death of their wife and mother, Veronica. It is difficult even to type Scott's name without adding hers. For me, it has always been Scott and Veronica . . . never one without the other . . . more than a married couple, they were a true team.

Today I'm asking God to pour out His amazing grace on this family, and upon our son, Adam, who has loved them for a very long time.

And to Veronica I say thank you for the difference you made in my son's life.

Overwhelmed

Today I am overwhelmed by God's goodness and faithfulness to our family. Personally, He brought me up from a pit of negativity and despair and has taken me on a life long journey learning how to serve Him by loving others. I shutter to think how my life would look if I had not answered His call 32 years ago this week. God is the ultimate truth, and everything I do or say must be measured by that truth. "Lord, I ask you to continue molding me into the person you want me to be while I continue learning to realize and recognize You for Who You are.
