This is kinda weird blogging about it, on Good Friday even.
As much as we know we'll have life after death with God, by God's grace, death for those close to us are more like permanent loss of some parts of us until we ourselves leave this world.
Ww was sharing about his answers to a list of questions from the book "If you want to walk on water you've got to get out of the boat" by John Ortberg. For a moment some thought ran through my mind that one day, should he leave earlier than me, it is something i would share with others as his eulogy.
Then i saw this video entitled 'Funeral' by MCYS from someone's blog
And i was so moved by it. It's really the simple things in life isn't it? Memories are things we can always keep.

The Titus 2 woman
You HAVE got to read THIS first before you understand what i'm going on about...
I really enjoyed listening to Marshilll's sermons on Ecclesiastics and the on Song of songs. I've learnt quite a bit from there but my little brain can only store up that much. plus listening to it while i work isn't the best way to remember lessons from the sermons that i listen.
Motherhood changes us women. If it doesn't then i really don't know who you are. I yearn to have a godly older woman like what Crystal wrote, not really to take care of kids (since my mil helps take care of Eliza..and she's also an older woman i look up to), but someone whose house is open and life is open to share godly life with. (maybe when i'm much much older i can do what the older woman did). And i would enjoy having someone to invest in lives of younger woman. I'm not perfect myself, and i have loads to grow, many areas of my life to change. but as iron sharpens iron, God will bless us women with friendships that extend beyond age groups we normally hang out with.
