Never a Cry
it is so very difficult to write these words to a friend who’ll never read them likely with songs of glory wondrous in my ear to write such words of sadness seems wrong as though glory had nothing to do with pain and the ending of a life scarce begun forgetting that He came for such as you as well as the one you lost, unknown with never a cry but to the Lord who also waits for yours
Several of us were singing & enjoying each other’s company in the “Leader’s Cottage” earlier today. Found out later that one of the people there that afternoon had had an abortion earlier that year.
The death of an innocent child is hard to reconcile so soon after we were all singing hymns together.
The mercy of our almighty God is hard to reconcile with the reality that we are, at our best, sinners.
Yet despair and mercy are not strangers and where they meet God has glory.
