Kimber and Dan,
You all have impressed me this long time with your devotion to God, and Kimber, you to your beloved husband as well.
God never said it would be easy...this life, or following His Son... but HE did promise that the reward would be worth it!
I will pray for you all to feel that wondrous peace that passes all human understanding...and that you come to know the old ditty about "footsteps in the sand" and rest easy in Christ's arms as He carries y'all thru this tragic time.
You eat an elephant 'One bite at a time' so you can only get thru this one step at a time. There are NO shortcuts...no panaceas. Grief is a process, not an event.
Embrace the anguish to a point, and then get up and go on with your daily chores... God will provide the strength to endure...but it won't be pleasant.
Keep the Son in your eyes!
