My fo...My condolences on the loss of your grandma.<br /><br />My former pastor used to say at funerals that although the scripture says there is a time to die, for us it never seems that there is a right time for our loved ones to die. There is always more we would like to share with them.<br /><br />That is what you are experiencing right now, but our faith tells us that our life continues beyond bodily death and culminates in bodily resurrection. So the parting from your grandma isn't farewell forever, but bye for now. This does not remove the sorrow that she is no longer physically present, but hopefully it is helping you put the sorrow in perspective.<br /><br />And it is perfectly normal for the first Christmas without one you loved to be difficult.<br /><br />So hang in there, Brandon. Let yourself grieve your loss all you want, but with hope in the Lord that your grandma was saved and you will see her again. And may the Lord console you and your family.naturgesetzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15268507379933286863noreply@blogger.com
