Walked into the room of a man who asked me if I remembered him. I did not at first, but he then seemed familiar. He had grown a beard and hair where he was mostly bald with no beard. I used to visit his wife who died 6 months ago. This man was taking is very hard and could not understand why God would do all those to him. He then realized that God knew what he was doing in taking her to a better place, and felt he had to believe this for his own sake. As I remember, she was a lovely lady and he did not seem to be very open to anything religious at that time. He had since changed and I listened to him being an encouragement to him. I read him a scripture and had prayer. Sometimes, God used the loss of a loved one to make us think about eternity. I told him that God wanted to take her home to a better place and he had a plan for him. He would have to trust God in all this.
