I’m writing this tonight as I think of one of my dearest friends. She called today to let me know that her son died this morning.
It’s odd… just 2 weeks ago we were talking about how when you lose your spouse you are a widow, when you lose your parents you’re an orphan, but there’s no name for someone who has lost a child. Maybe we’ll come up with one now.
I pray that she can sleep tonight. I pray for a clear mind as she faces the plans and decisions that must be made. I pray that she will feel God’s arms around her even when she’s screaming at Him.
I hope that I can be of some help and comfort to her in the rough times ahead.
