My Thoughts This Afternoon
My thoughts after attending another funeral for a young man in our community:
Wiped out
Completely
I have no more tears
No more emotion
Nothing left
I’m numb
Exhausted
Death of another young person
A great young man died too soon
Another funeral
Another hurting family
I don’t even hate this anymore
It is
It just is
Part of the world in which we live
Fallen
Broken world
Death and dying are part of our lives
Sadness
Sorrow
But God…
Kind
Compassionate
Loving
Merciful
Joyful
Gracious
Faithful
Good
Patient
Just
Worthy
Holy
All knowing
All seeing
All being
All loving
Ever present help
My refuge
My Redeemer
My Savior
My Friend
It’s time for a nap.
Christianity, death, FAITH, funeral, Grief, poetry
Priceless Joy
Beautiful poetry Kathleen!

These tragedies tear deep into our souls. Our outter self looks to fix it, but our inner self knows the physical damage is far beyond repair. Our souls seek a comfort that will only be realized by seeking the God who planted eternity in our hearts.

Eternity in our hearts. Amen.
