In Your book were written every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there were none of them. Psalm 139:16
I thought about this passage as I visited with Bev's family in the hospital, and again when I heard that Rolene continued to fare poorly. He knows our days before ever we come into this world, and we leave this age, this life, at His appointment. The Lord giveth and the Lord taketh away; blessed be the name of the Lord!
There's comfort there for those who will take it. We don't know what today or tomorrow will bring, but we can know this: our lives are in the hands of Him who formed us, redeemed us, and has promised us the joy of a bright eternity in His Father's house. We can walk out to meet what awaits us unafraid and at peace. May that peace be with Bev, with Rolene, with all who love them, and with all whose earthly pilgrimage wends to an end.
