Death, Life, Resurrection

There have been so many deaths and funerals that have touched our lives recently. A sister in our book club lost her mother, our ward lost a faithful sister, our family lost a Mother, Grandmother, and Great-grandmother all wrapped in one package. There are many others in my circle that are elderly, in pain, or with awful life threatening disease. Yet I feel hope and happiness. I joy in the fact that these sweet brothers and sisters give us the opportunity to love and serve them. Then when they die and leave this mortal realm, they are free. Their spirits are soaring. I look forward to the glorious resurrection where all will be well, spirits and bodies reunited to joy and glory!
