Death and Promise

I find hope in this promise, as does my husband, so when we share this with our children we let them know that it’s okay and it’s natural and it’s the life we have here. They know we are at peace with this and therefore they are at peace with it. It doesn’t mean they won’t have more questions later or that they won’t cry the first time they lose a pet or someone they love. It does mean we will be there to talk about it, remind each other of God’s promise and wait, wait for his return.
