Thanks

Suz is officially ended this blog tomorrow. I will put it on a thumb drive and print it out. What a journey this has been for all of us. We are pretty emotional now but the sadness is all on this end. We feel such comfort for Rich-lovingly being cared for by Jesus. Surrounded by family and friends. wow.

I wanted to add one thing about the party we had for him Thursday night. It had all the life of a wedding reception. We are the 'bride' of Christ and so that send off was a wedding reception of sorts as Rich was returning to his Heavenly home.....a bride of Christ. That sounds weird for a guy but that's how it is written. 

Today I was reading John: 18 where Jesus is talking to his Father in Heaven concerning the 'ones' He had given to Him. Jesus didn't want to die. He asked His Father to remove the cup, but not My will, but Yours. I took comfort in those words. God's will is above all else. We will always pray for healing........but in the end, it's God's will. Thanks so much for following this journey with us, praying with and for us. The song that keeps playing in my head is "How Beautiful is the Body of Christ". It is.
