Entering grief requires intense emotional capacity. So after respite retreat weekends, we rely on our Living Hope to restore our souls.

Reflecting as this week holds birth dates for my Dad and Momma. Mostly with gratitude for precious parents. And a sore ❤️. I wanted to make more memories. Yet this separation is doable because it’s temporary. Thanks be to Jesus!
