My heart is heavy today. I was just going through my email, and a prayer chain email came through late last night that said a friend of ours had passed away. Such a sweet and wonderful lady, and someone who I had lost touch with. The last time I saw her several years ago, she was just as wonderful as ever. She gave me her phone number, and told me to call her. And, in the hustle and bustle of daily life and busyness, I never did. And now I am sad because I missed the opportunity to spend more time with this wonderful person.
This is a lady who put up with me in the teenage years, right in the middle of the walking attitude phase, but no matter how much I dished out, all she gave back was love and patience. I thank the Lord for people like Jane Neese.
I encourage you to make that call, send that text, or note, or card, or letter, or knock on that door today. Walk down the hall or around the corner to say hello, and let your loved ones know they are loved.
The wonderful part is, I know exactly where this precious, beautiful lady is going, and some day I am going to get to see her again in Heaven.
God Bless,
-Sonja
