The Saints

Sometimes my mind is drawn to those who have gone to be with Jesus. I think about the impact they have had on my life and the fortunate one I have been to have known them. The way that those people lived out their walk with Jesus is something that I am drawn to over and over. I think back on how I felt being with each of them and knowing in my soul that something was different about them. I'm grateful for the way they shared their journeys with Jesus and that He was evident in their lives. It's a day to remember, but also a day to rejoice. Even though they have gone before and are not here with me now, they are very alive in Christ in Heaven. It's beautiful. And I know they are all praying for me and my family. This is what life in Christ is all about! The saints who have gone before and the sisters and brothers who are with us still. We are meant for relationship with one another.
