Update on Granny

Today Granny will be released from the hospital with Hospice Care. I was encouraged with these words today from Debi's Blog, and I would like to encourage you with them as well.



1 Thessalonians 4:

The Coming of the Lord

13 But we do not want you to be uninformed, brothers, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve as others do who have no hope. 14 For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so, through Jesus, God will bring with him those who have fallen asleep. 15 For this we declare to you by a word from the Lord, [4] that we who are alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will not precede those who have fallen asleep. 16 For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore encourage one another with these words.

Hospice is a wonderful organization that makes the waiting room much easier. I refer to the Waiting Room because that is what we do when we are waiting for God to call a terminally ill loved one home...waiting. He knows every hair on our heads AND he knows the hour He will call us home. I pray that your experience with Hospice will be a strong support and tender comfort to you during this season. Take care!
