Life is so fleeting, so temporary but what a wonderful gift from God. Death comes to and must be embraced even as we continue to live on this Earth.

I hear about all the weather-related death and destruction and my heart feels heavy. Yet, I get busy organizing our school room and clearing out clutter.

Grandmother's health is declining more quickly than we expected and I feel like weeping. Yet, I stay on task, organizing closets and tallying fall wardrobes.

I pray that my Heavenly Father will watch over me and guide me as I navigate thias place between life and death. In fact, every day that I live is one between my earthly life and the death of my flesh. Thank you God for giving me one more day on this Earth to please you.
