Halfway there
"When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life in a manner so that when you die the world cries and you rejoice." - Native American Proverb
This sums up the message our pastor shared as we buried our son. It is so true. We mourn our loss at a graveside, yet rejoice to have known someone who has changed us in so many special ways. He needs no tears now ... he's in Glory. I pray for your sweet friend who must surely be in shock at such a sudden and unplanned loss. May God truly comfort her ... and you, too.
