Another "Year Ago Today" Memory


One year ago today I stood at my daughter's bedside, holding her hand as she slept. She opened her eyes and attempted to speak to me. I am still not sure what she said. I smiled and told her Malaya was doing fine.

She smiled at me, shut her eyes and went back to sleep.

It was the last conversation we had.

"In mourning will I go down to the grave . . ."

I am standing beside you in your grief and lifting you up to God in prayer brother.

I keep praying that God will fill you up with what He knows you need as I wait for the day that we will no longer know grief or pain. Until then, I will walk beside you and help any way I can.

Rick, we have been praying for you and Beverly everyday. I pray that God would continue to be faithful and close to you as the events of last year play through your mind. Thank you for sharing, it helps as we continue to process the grief.
