Dispatches from Home – The Sting of Death.

Greetings! In one of his encouraging posts, my former pastor, Dean Register, wrote, “The sting of death festers in our soul.” How true, how true. However, he reminds us that Immanuel—God with us—cures the soul and gives us hope and strength for today and all of our tomorrows.

Many dear friends are experiencing their Christmas bereft of a loved one or a friend. Please know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. I, too, know the sting of death, but I am happy to say that I also know the peace and joy that comes from knowing Immanuel.

Big hug y’all!
