I've ministered to many this year who have lost a parent, their spouse or a child. As I type this, I'm prayerfully preparing for a funeral service of a dear lady in our church. The emotional flux of joy and loss is difficult to define or express. This lady was saved. She had trusted in Christ years ago and is now in the presence of Jesus her Savior. But the family deals with the pain. This year is ending with several families suffering the loss of loved ones. So pray with me... pray for them and pray for me as I strive to minister to their needs. Pray to that I'll have wisdom in the juggling of family responsibilities with pastoral ministry responsibilities.
God is good all the time. At times we forget that and at times we get depressed and down. It is then that we look to Him and count the blessings we have in Christ.
