Journal entry by Jenny Irons —
The ocean reminds me of God’s power- I feel so small each time I stand before the waves. I feel small today, thinking about Your power..
Today was the day you called him home.
Today was the day you answered our prayers - maybe not in the way we had hoped but Rodney received complete healing nonetheless, not because of anything he did but because of his faith in Jesus- Your Grace.
I am humbled & crying when I remember the details of that horrible day…. It was Traumatic
and yet I am grateful
for I know Your hand was upon each of us.
this was the song playing in the room when Rodney took his final breath.
A favorite praise song of Rodney’s is comforting today.
He is with his Lord & Savior.
Much has changed.. (I will write more of God’s unexpected gifts through this painful year another time)
We lost my sweet father- and beloved father-in-law this year.. two beloved aunts,.. Rodney’s cousin that he loved dearly. The losses of these family members only points to The Fall. We ARE living in a fallen world and long for the day when all will be made right. (Rev 21)
Much has stayed the same.
I am the same..
My love for Rodney is forever.
God is Good - yes…. Even when we don’t understand or see … even when we lament and ask “why”
He walks with us ..
trusting in His promises. Clinging to them.
