Get rid of all bitterness, rage, anger, harsh words, and slander, as well as all types of malicious behavior. Instead, be kind to each other, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, just as God through Christ has forgiven you.”

 Ephesians 4:31-32

Dear Grieving Family

Dear Grieving Family, I read about your loss today. I saw the photo of the precious child lost. I’m sure the world is going to miss out terribly because of the extinquished bright light that burned in his curious eyes.  I’m sadden that he will not be able to grow up, to have the chance to both explore and better the world by his presence. I could see the kindness in him, shining out of him in the photo.  Dear family, I’m sorry we’re stuck in this so often unfair, unkind, and violent world. I just pray that those around you make the world a little extra kind and caring...and that all who read this will take it upon themselves to try to make the world around them a little more loving. A little more kind. A little more fair.  I really don’t know what to say, because words do little to heal the pain. But what I can do is tell you that I am sorry....and urge anyone who reads this to live life seeking opportunities to be kinder and more loving.  Let’s change the world, one good deed at a time.  With love, Me
