Uncle Robin

For those of you who don't know, my Uncle Robin passed away last night. This morning we raised a flag at his house and it is currently flying at half-mast. Thanks to all who prayed, he's dancing with the angels now. I liked what someone else had to say on the subject:

Psalm 30 tells us, "weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning."
So now, even when our eyes are bathed with tears we await that glad 'morning' when our God will 'wipe away all tears.'
So to you, dear Robin when that day comes the words good-bye will no longer be spoken, and even now I say to you rather-
'I'll meet you in the morning'

I love you, I miss you,

Sara

"Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His godly ones" How comforting are the promises of God's word in the midst of a world that is often comfortless. We love you Sara and pray that God's great comfort will lift each of your family up in the midst of your loss. The Psalmist David found comfort in the face of the enemy in Psalm 56:8 "You have kept count of my tossings; put my tears in your bottle. Are they not in your book?" And since Paul reminds us in I Corinthians 15 that death is the last enemy that will be destroyed we can take comfort that none of our tears are lost to the eye of our loving Savior. The great consolation is that as our Savior, Christ defeated Satan at the cross and He is the one who will destroy the last enemy "death". We continue to pray that God's grace will prove sufficient in your grief.

We are 'pleased' for him and his family, he is in heaven and no more suffering and pain, that was his prayer. We will miss him everywhere we see him, any farm, any harvest, any day. We know we will see him again. Well said Sas, Iris
