Its never easy to say goodbye

I received word this morning that my brother in law passed away. I am heart broken. Im sad that his life was cut short. Im sad for all the events his family will face without him. Im sad for his families sadness yet knowing how much pain they are in, I can not do anything to help them. Life just makes me sad today.

We were never incredibly close but I still loved him, laughed at some of the silly pranks he would pull, enjoy so many memories that he is a part of. I pray for his family to find the strength to continue on. I pray for his wife to find love and encouragement all around her as she faces so many uncertain times ahead of her.

I don't really know how to process my feelings. All I can do is pray for God who does have control to bring about peace and comfort to this family who is going to feel so very lost. Life is never easy and death, especially of someone so young, is devastating.

I keep hearing that song "Go Rest High On That Mountain" And realize, the words are so fitting to David. He was a remarkable Man and he fought a long hard battle against Cancer. The power behind his fight, speaks volumes about his love and dedication to his family. He did everything he could to provide a good life, loving home and secure environment for his wife, children and grandchildren. The angels gained a keeper today and he will be terribly missed.

Today Im just sad. Today, I wish I could mend the numerous broken hearts with a condolence card, a phone call or even a hug. In times like these, I realize I have no power, But GOD does and there are no tears in Heaven. There are no sorrows. David is pain free and he will be preparing for his family to come into Gods house in the future.

I believe he is going to be the Guardian Angel that will guide and protect those he loves. Maybe not now, but one day I pray his family feels his presence and is comforted by it. Today is just a very sad day..

I know your life
On earth was troubled
And only you could know the pain
You weren't afraid to face the devil
You were no stranger to the rain

Go rest high on that mountain
‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son

Oh, how we cried the day you left us
And gathered round your grave to grieve
Wish I could see the angels’ faces
When they hear your sweet voice sing

Go rest high on that mountain
‘Cause, Son, your work on earth is done
Go to Heaven a shoutin'
Love for the Father and the Son
