It's been 7 years today...

... and my God was as good on the day I buried my dear husband as on the day I married him. His goodness doesn't change.

7 years have passed quickly and yet I sometimes "dread" that these next years might pass slowly in ways. (Though at my age, slow is becoming more of a welcomed word!!!!) But, I know I look back with continued gratefulness for a husband who loved his family passionately, planned for us diligently, and showed us how to live a life and yes, die, devoted to God and family, while providing for us in every way. Yes, David is significant to our family even today, in spite of his absence.

How thankful I am...

God is so good, even in loss. You are a remarkable woman, and your love for your David is inspiring. I pray every day to love my David with the same devotion. I love your focus and your passion for those around you--Thank you for your many kindnesses to all of us. We all know that David would be extremely pleased with the woman you are and love you show others. I love you!!!
