Sadness and Despair

Blessed are those who mourn, for they shall be comforted – Matthew 5:4.

I write this blog with a heavy heart as America has lost over 50 thousand citizens that we know of due to covid19. While they may have been elderly or had underlying issues these individuals were someone’s loved one. No one should of died in the first place, but we must continue social distancing going forward. We want less die now and in the future should another wave come again in the fall.

Most of all, I pray for those who are grieving that they would feel the love of Christ around them today and in days ahead. I am asking God to give them peace and understanding during this time of great loss of the beloved family member. May God grant them comfort as they learn to cherish the good times and have the strength to move forward with their lives. In the mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, Amen.
