Blessings and pain

Also this evening - my dear mother-in-law passed away. Our family has so many blessings and praises to sing of our God, even in this sad time.

First - her passing was peaceful, a slipping away. We had prayed so fervently for this
Second - Scott boarded a plane this morning. He arrived in Kansas just in for his mom to acknowledge that she knew he was there before she lost consciousness, and he was able to sit with her and hold her hand for the rest of the evening.
Third - God provided a wonderful and comforting chaplain through the hospice program to minister the Gospel of Grace this evening.

Please pray for the unity, peace and grieving of our family.

Oh, I am so glad Scott was able to go back and be there with her. Call me if you have time and want to talk.
