A Prayer for What to Do When Someone You Love Dies By Chris Eyte Bible Reading "yet we are confident and satisfied to be out of the body and at home with the Lord." - 2 Cor. 5:8 Listen or Read Below: So I agreed to write this devotional on what to do when someone you love dies - and two days later a dear friend from my church swam in the sea and then dropped dead. It was his birthday and he had been in good health, enjoying his day. I, and many others, still reel from the shock of it. We just don't understand these things. Then I looked at the video from my 18th birthday party, nearly 30 years ago, and saw the people there talking and laughing with me. My father, grandma, grandad, nan (other grandmother), aunt, godmother's husband, older cousins, and an older family friend - all of them are gone now. I helped carry all of them to their graves with the coffins on my shoulder, as a pallbearer at the funerals. |
