Hey Friends,
Thanks for joining me for another installment of the blog. I have a few different blog posts swirling in my brain. I can not make my thoughts cohesive and flow out my fingertips. Hopefully, I can get them out soon.
Our longtime readers know dates and commemorating life’s moments mean a lot to us. Dad liked to look back and remember the milestones.
Today, is a date I wish I did not have to talk about, but Dad would if he was here. One month ago Daddy was set free from this life.
I know he is still enjoying his life. He is no longer suffering, bound by time and physical limitations. None of us can even image the life Dad has now in Heaven. That realization gives me hope and comfort.
Down here each day that passes I miss him more and more. Everyday we are trying to figure out life. Real life hurts! Dad often quoted Garfield, “Life Stinks”! I say a hearty double amen!
One thing I know God is good! He has been there every moment in our grief and uncertainty. We are truly blessed!
Thank you for the prayers, friendship, encouragement, help and love. Our family and friends are absolutely amazing. We love you all! Thank you just feels so hollow, but it is meant from the bottom of my heart.
See you tomorrow.
Odie
That’s a great picture of you and your dad. He certainly loved you and your mom! I too thought of the significance of today’s date as I traveled to work early this morning. I sure miss him but know he’s enjoying the splendor of heaven. It’s what he labored for so many years to obtain. He loved pointing people to Christ. His race is run and by God’s grace we will finish ours and join him for eternity. See you down the road.
