November 8th is a day that marks a sad anniversary in our family. It is on this day four years ago that my mother went to be with our Lord. I know she feels no sorrow as this day comes around, but for those of us still here, missing her, we grieve. We do not grieve as those without hope. We rejoice in the hope we have. We thank God for His grace shown to us in our sorrow. We thank God for His sufficiency in our weakness, and we praise Him for another day.
