JOURNEY WITH JESUS, by Daniel G. Shipton

Sharing thoughts on life, spiritual transformation, and leadership in the small town American Church. Following the words of Paul in Romans 12:1 " Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will." I try to update this Blog at least weekly by Tuesday.

Peace in the Losss of Life

People make a big difference. In creation God said, "It is not good for man to be alone," so he created woman. We are created to need others. In times of losss of loved ones it is the comfort and peace of others around us that really mean the most.

I have had the opportunity to meet people in some of the most difficult times of loss in their lives. Everyone repsonds to loss in their own way, but everyone needs the love and care of family and friends when those times come.

We are not there to give advice, or to make life better. We are there to help them have a shoulder to cry on, and an heart that will listen and help them bear the burdon. We need to be there for others, and one day they will be there for us in our own time of need.

-- Keep on the journey with Jesus today.
