Today was the Funeral Service for the dear parishioner. What a blessing that what drove the message was a line from D365 for August 16th, the day she died (see Day #184 for the introduction to this online devotion): “Every person’s life tells a story.” So very true.
It went on from there. The scripture reading was from Hebrews 11.13-16: “All of these died in faith”…”they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one.” Then the prayer: “Faithful God, when I get too attached to this world, remind me that no matter how good I think this life might be, it will not compare to the reward you have planned for me. Help me be faithful until that day. Amen.”
She was. She has. And may we all!
Blessings.
