Every Moment is Precious

My husband said it on Friday morning:

Every moment is precious.

The night before, we found out that an acquaintance we knew at church passed away Wednesday morning in her sleep.  She was 36. 

She had an almost 2 year old daughter, a 5 year old son, a 12 year old step-daughter, a loving husband, loving parents and a loving sister.   She was having no known health issues. 

But she is gone.  Gone to be with her Father in heaven. 

We don't understand God's plan, we can't see it all as He can.  We can't make sense of it.  But her husband spoke at church this morning - just five days after waking up and not being able to wake up his wife. 

He said it well - God still loves me and I still love God.  We don't understand it, but that doesn't change the fact that God is a loving God.  We can't make sense of it, but that doesn't take away from the fact that God is with us, every day, every moment.

It also puts life in perspective.  Every moment is precious.  Forgive those you need to forgive, let go of those things you need to let go of, live every day like its' your last. 

We don't know when our time will come. 

Love like there is no tomorrow.

In His Grace...
