It seems like life and death are all around me right now. And, surprisingly, they both make me want to cry.
Several of my close friends have just had or are having babies.
At 27, my heart aches for a baby of my own.
My grandmother is very ill right now.
The nurses and doctors aren't giving her much time left.
My heart aches for her pain.
It seems like life and death are all around me right now. And, surprisingly, they both make me rejoice.
My friends, who let me share in their job of new life.
Holding tiny people, touching tiny hands and feet.
My heart leaps with the blessings.
My grandmother stands on the cusp of New Life.
A new body.
And the chance to see our Savior face to face.
My heart leaps with joy for her blessing and the thought of no more pain and the chance to eternally praise God the Father and our Risen Savior.
It seems like life and death are all around me right now, leaving me with a myriad of emotions and thoughts.
Life begins and life ends.
Love is always there.
