Going Home

One of the things I have been praying for in the last few months has been for the healing of a friend with dangerous and aggressive cancer. She is too young for it, too much to live for, but her Father took his precious daughter home today.

She is a brilliant woman, with an incredible family, both immediate and spread out further and what an amazing force they have been throughout these months as they have stood with God no matter what the time or the cost, against the enemy.

I am so glad that death has lost it's sting, that if God is for us nothing can stand, that He can do the impossible, that he will NEVER leave us or forsake us. I am sooo glad for the way he has worked in and through each of them, right till he took her Home to him, and beyond, and look forward to the days ahead when we continue to see his glory.

What a precious, treasured gift these wonderful people have been to me through so many years, and what a bittersweet joy it has been to walk these days with them, even so far away.
