This is a tough post to write..
I have been trying to think of something to say fitting the situation, but there really are no words.
So I will just speak from my heart.
Sunday night, one of my good friends whom I have known for over 5 years, lost her husband unexpectedly. She is 29 and he was 30. Together, they have a beautiful 7 year old daughter, named Bethanne. While I did not know her husband well, I know Emily, and she is one of the kindest, funniest, God loving people that I know. She is so thoughtful and giving I can't even tell you. My heart is breaking for her and the pain she is going through. My heart is also breaking because I know there is nothing I can do to take away the pain that she is enduring. All I can do is ray, which is what I have been doing, almost non stop since I found out about her great loss. I ask you all to pray for Emily and Bethy. We can't see God's plan or even imagine what he could be doing taking a loving husband and father away from those who need him most, but my greatest prayer is that he use Aaron's life and death as a way to bring people to him and affect people like never before.
When things like this happen its good to remember that we take so much of our lives for granted. Good health, a safe place to live, good friends, family we love... If nothing else, please take a minute tonight to think of everything that God has blessed you with. Love your family and those close to you, and don't take people and life for granted. Tell those you love, that you love them, do it frequently, do it honestly, and never take it for granted.
