I just received the sad news that a member of our church passed away last night. I didn't know her very well, but I have been praying for her and her family since we started at Mirabeau Chapel in October. You see, Teresa was diagnosed with fatal cancer not too long ago and was told she only had a short time left to live. Thankfully, she lasted long enough to see her Grandchild born, and spend one last Christmas with her family.
I dedicate this post in loving memory of Teresa. Even though I didn't have the privilege of knowing her as well as some, I admired her. God has used her story to touch the lives of many around her, including myself. Her faith and her trust in God through the most difficult time in her life have been a testimony to me that no matter how hard times get, we can depend on God. He is our Rock, our Strength, and our Hope.
I pray that the God of Comfort will stretch out His loving arms and envelope all those who mourn her passing. I am truly sorry for your loss.
Romans 12:15:b ...mourn with those who mourn
