I had a missed call on my phone this morning from my folks and I knew immediately what it signalled. As I phoned home for news of my grandmothers death, I felt nervous but slightly relieved. It has been a long time coming and we are confident of her salvation. Praise the LORD that death has lost it's victory and that we have eternal life in Jesus our saviour.
I was at the church cooking for the street kids, so surrounded by people I had little chance to process the news or grieve.
After cooking I went home to find comfort in chocolate, TV then sleep.
None of this worked of course, and I finally turned to the LORD, the source of our comfort and hope.
