It's never good news when you get a phone call at 3 AM. My brother called this morning to tell me that his wife had just passed away. "Whendy's gone," he announced with a tired and emotion choked voice. She had been waging a very brave battle with cancer this past year and had been in a great deal of pain. Thankfully, that is all over. She is at rest.
Steven had helped her wage that battle. He had supported her and helped her through it all, and he must now face life without her. My heart goes out to him, her mother, her son, and her grandson. May the God who is love, mercy, and comfort supply them with those things in abundance. May God welcome her into his kingdom whole, healthy, and surrounded by love. Amen.
Now may our Lord Jesus Christ himself and God our Father, who loved us and by his grace gave us eternal comfort and a wonderful hope, comfort you and strengthen you in every good thing you do and say. -- II Thessalonians 2:16-17, NLT
My sincere condolences to your brother and family.
