It's amazing how time manages to get away from us. As a writer and author, it's all too easy to lose track as I edit one book, rewrite another and so on. Before you know it,
here it is, a month gone by. It shouldn't happen but it does.
Sometimes however, just like many of us on this particular journey, we find ourselves simply languishing. It's difficult to get motivated when your heart is in eternity with your child.
Losing a child is the worst but sometimes the circumstances make it appalling.
I'm from Altoona Pennsylvania and now live out of state. But I keep in touch with my former hometown newspaper and read it online
Yesterday's story made me cry. A young man (originally from New York but attending College in Pennsylvania ) went home for Spring Break. While in New York, he threw himself off a building and died. 18 years old. His poor parents. They had no idea about the hazing.
My heart truly goes out to this precious family.
Sometimes kids can feel that maybe their parents won't understand, that there is no way out and end up doing what this young man had done.
If you're reading this blog, will you take a moment to lift up the family in prayer? We all know how hard it is to lose a child and I am sure they greatly need prayers now.
