Missing Julie

This morning I got an email from Luke Ulrich, who is the husband of our previous baby-sitter, neighbor, friend, and sister in Christ. As upsetting it was to hear such sad news that Julie had passed away after I had woken up, we are rejoicing that this morning she woke up in the arms of Jesus, and is spending eternity worshipping him. Wow!

It happened a lot more quickly then I had expected. I obviously hadn't spent a lot of time with her or her family lately, but she had been given a few weeks since her chemo wasn't working anymore and her liver wasn't working. The doctor told them she would be sleeping a lot and would probably pass away in her sleep, which happened.

We are sad and grieving for her family who is going to have to live their lives without a wife or mother. Thankfully they all have their faith in the Lord, the Lord of hope, love, and comfort. I just pray that along with me, their church family, and their friends can really help a now single Father.
So sad.
