“ANNIVERSARY!”
Ecclesiastes 12:1
“Remember now your Creator in the days of your youth, before the difficult days come, and the years draw near when you say, ‘I have no pleasure in them.’”
Anniversaries are times to recall days gone by. The older we get, the more anniversaries we have to remember. Some anniversaries bring back wonderful, sweet, and precious memories, but others bring a pang to the heart. January 13th is one of the latter for me. It was one year ago on January 13th that my precious wife Joyce slipped away from this pain-racked world into the paradise of God.
We had celebrated 62 anniversaries of marriage and many other precious times that we always recalled with joy. But there were other anniversaries that brought tears to our eyes. The anniversary of the passing of our daughter Brenda was one of these. Joyce would always light a candle on the anniversary of Brenda’s passing.
Joyce and I were so blessed to have found each other at the tender age of fourteen. We knew from the start that we would walk life’s pathway together. We shared joys and tears along the way, but it was always together. The hardest part in the passing of your soul mate is that there is now an emptiness where once there was that one you knew was beside you. I can hardly wait to be with her and my other loved ones again! Until then I will double my efforts to serve Jesus with my whole heart!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
