Italy

I am without words to express - nothing.

On my way to Italy to be with a dear friend who is in much anguish and sorrow. A young man perishes, a husband, a son, a good man. He knew Jesus. Thank you, Lord, for comfort that such knowledge affords. Eternity looms dearer and dearer.

So thankful you could be with them in Italy.
Of course I am lifting up Liz and all who are close to her, but I am also interceding for you and Rick ,as you
pour out to others.

Darlene, please, know that my heart is so heavy for Liz and I don't even know her. Give Margaret & Robert a big hug for me.

About a week ago another man lost his life and the story is so much different because there is no real comfort as he most likely did not know the Lord. His young wife was talking to him on the phone while he was driving (he had a head set on)and it was raining and he could hardly see and a tractor trailer was zooming by and Faith(the wife's name)heard her husband say I can hardly see, a scream, crashing, and then silence. Her heart also is so shattered and from her mom's testimony (Arlene Wright) Faith had not been walking with Jesus.

But God will be glorified and testimonies will be written.

Thank you and Rick for your faithfulness to be friends and shepherds.
The service today was full of prayers that rose to the throne of grace for all of you.
