Amen. also I love this line you wrote: "I think in life it’s a good thing to be introspective now and then, to sit and enjoy memories. It helps us keep one foot in the past while we daily deal with the present." I so agree. I am so very sorry for your deep losses. Losing a parent is so unsettling in 1000 ways. I can't imagine losing them both so close together. May God continue to meet you in His Word and bring you the comfort only He can.
"God does not expect us to skip past grief because we are Christians. Instead, he leans in, he listens to us, he holds us up, lifts our head, surrounds us before and behind."
gorgeous list of truths to press into your heart! It makes all the difference when we slow down to soak in His Word, doesn't it?!
I’ve loved wading through the Psalms slowly and meditating on who God is. It’s so refreshing!

AWSOME.
Thank you for the insight and reminder:
