Reality Checks…

The reality is that the best of intentions cannot compete with another funeral today after another sudden death in the community and then my mother in the hospital as well after having a heart attack. It’s been a week of hearts breaking – literally and figuratively. My attention to that reality has meant letting go of my expectations that I will do everything well….or in a timely manner. Today, the best I can offer is a prayer for all the grieving and all the healing. Resurrection requires both.

God bless, and amen.

    Lori, thank you for sharing this – we are holding you close in our thoughts and prayers. What a heavy week you’ve been carrying…so much loss, so much uncertainty, and at the same time the quiet responsibility of being present for others who are grieving too. Lori, I’m especially sorry to hear about your mom. Through the cracks in the pavement and the walls, healing pushes through. Please know you are not alone. We are here for you 🙂. Kevin
