Reflect
Losing someone we love is difficult. Even though we believe in heaven and life after death, their absence from everyday life is painful.
Pray
Dear Lord, you put people in my life, and then you take them away.
Oh, how my heart struggles with that!
I know I will see them again, but sometimes that isn’t enough.
Please help me feel their presence;
remind me that those I love are always with me
and the moments we’ve shared
are part of the person I have become.
Amen.
Act
Find a picture of someone you love who has died. As you look at it, spend five minutes remembering ways that they impacted your life and helped you become a better person.
