Last month there were 2 others we were unable to attend.
One was live-streamed which I so appreciated!
The beauty of the live-stream was that we not only saw our friend's family during the recessional but we were able to sing along as the words were on our screen. Gripping words. Beautiful words.
God teaches us in His word that our days are numbered. In Psalm 90 Moses prays, the value of knowing our days are numbered....."that we might gain a heart of wisdom."
We might miss those who have passed on but to the Lord, but "precious in the sight of the Lord are the death of His saints; devoted, faithful servants, godly ones, loved ones, righteous ones.(Psalm 116:15) regardless of the translation one uses.
