I promised yesterday that I would give more details about Morgan’s Celebration of Life. In order to NOT break the promise, I’m going to give a few more details, but it won’t be the whole shebang. I want to do that when I have the recording to upload. Expect it for the long essay next weekend.
First of all, thank you for taking the time to update us. I know you must be exhausted after such an incredibly busy and emotional weekend. I’m glad things went as well as they did. I know the weather was bad, but I’m glad everyone made it, and safely. Very interesting analogy with your branches. Isn’t it amazing how God will show us things so many different ways. It’s good that you are so attuned to His Presence and Providence!
You know, I even see some beauty in the decaying branches. Maybe you should keep them a while longer and you could use them to make a fire this fall or use them to decorate some other way.? Jesus said, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit.” John 12:24. It seems like these little branches, destined for the trash until you saw their beauty, have taught (us all) a lesson from the Word of God!
I wasn't that upset about the weather, and less so when yesterday, Easter, was a glorious weather day here. All those Easter egg hunts and family get togetherness were probably amazing. Yes, I have a pile of sticks for upcoming fires, so they'll end up there. Thanks for your thoughts, Bellatrix. I always appreciate them.
