Fathering in Faith

Christina would be turning 34 today.

Probably one of the hardest things I mourn the most lately is time lost. Our 9 year anniversary is on the 16th. We’ve passed 10 years of knowing each other; close to a third of her life.

I wish I could have 50-70 more birthdays with her. God decided to bring her to himself where she is having a much better party than I can imagine. But it’s still hard here.

We had a great time celebrating her with family today. We released balloons at the cemetery, we went to her favorite place to eat, and had a great time with family.

I didn’t think I needed it, but today I got so many texts from church members, staff, and elders and it reminded me that God brought us to this place for a purpose. I’ve said it before in this blog, but I’ll say it again. God knew what he was doing us bringing us close to family and at a loving church.

Today feels lonely because I miss her so so much, but I also am reminded I’m not alone in so many ways. Thank you all for the prayer and support always! Love you.

Happy birthday, Christina!
