Good Morning, My Friends!! Shortly before 2am this morning, my wife Sheila Diane Prater, passed.
She had a small group of praying, family and friend encamped around
her. Her battle with Leukemia, left her weak and unable to fight off the
series of infections that followed. I ask that you all pray for our
family's strength, in the coming weeks,...especially the grandchildren, that have lived with us most of their lives.

As Christians, we have a perspective of death that is often strange.
We see and feel the same absence of our loved ones, that the rest of
the world does,...but we have a hope, that does not leave us empty for
long. We hurt and cry, for the immediate lost, of what they meant to our day to day lives. Yet we rejoice, because for them, life's struggles are over,...they've graduated, no stress, no pain and no worries.
The
plans we have for our lives, don't always work out the way we'd hope.
If we don't fight it, we often discover that God had something so much
better in mind.
Lord, we want to thank You for the lives we've touch,...but even more for the lives You've allowed to touch us. Amen.
