I've been missing my father a lot these days....
He died back in March at the age of 101. His death was not unexpected because in his final months he began to weaken rapidly, and his health started to fail. Prior to this he was strong, spry, and very independent.
I knew his departure was going to happen. It was not a surprise. But for whatever reasons, his loss has now begun to hit me hard. I know Jesus loves me, and He knows my pain. So I am trusting my Savior to get me through this time of mourning. I am likewise looking to the Holy Spirit to continue His inner work of comfort. After all, He is the divine Comforter (John 14:16 and 26-27).
