Day 6
This morning we gathered at the graveside.
It was an intimate gathering,
this family God created,
not a formal service,
just me speaking of the love Olin had for each one of us,
of how proud he was of each one of us.
God met us there.
Simple words were spoken. Grief was shared. Love was abundant!
And then we return to our home for a simple lunch,
for sharing stories and looking at pictures, just being together.
Thank You, Lord, for giving me the words to speak to this family You created.
Thank You for Your presence at that grave.
Thank You that You do not leave us alone, but are always with us.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil:
for Thou art with me;
Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me.
