I'm so sorry to hear of your friend, Melissa. It's always hard when we lose someone we love, especially to a disease like Cancer. I wish we could find a cure. She is whole again, with no pain, just peace and happiness. I'll be thinking of you.
What beautiful passages from scripture. I will write these down to remember them. Thank you for sharing.
Melissa, I read this a week ago and didn't comment, though my heart is heavy for you and for your friend's loved ones. When my uncle died of colon cancer(about two years after my grandmother died--also Cancer), my friend's mother mentioned how sad it is that Cancer is the one tie that so many of us have between us. Perhaps if we read and follow the scripture you posted, there will be better things tying us together...
