The Day After

A dear friend died yesterday.

A friend whose life reflected the beauty and grace of Christ; a friend whose life caused many to trust in a Savior. A friend who has loved me and supported me; a consistent presence in my life for as long as I can remember. I will always remember ati days and a hundred Sunday potluck dinners and long green vans and mrs. pj and camping trips and her amazing laugh. I have been challenged to live a life of authentic worship; authentic faith because of her example.

A friend who hoped in the Story of Redemption; a hope that radiated from her, and affected every facet of her life.

Beautiful DW, you have loved well, and have made me long to know God as you do. I will miss you...
