Sad news…

My paternal grandmother passed away tonight. I’m sitting here trying to collect my thoughts. And I have such mixed thoughts right now. Josh is coming home soon, and I can’t let my grief affect his homecoming. Pray that God gives me one more emotional thread to make it through the week and pray that God gives me the strength to do what I need to do.

I am reminded again of this post from Incarnatus Est on death . And also something Pastor said in adult Bible hour today. We do not believe in the Greek philosophical heresy that our bodies can be separated from our spirit. Granny has fallen asleep. She is indeed at rest in our Savior. “I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Christian Church, the resurrection of the body and the life ever lasting. Amen!”
