Today was a day of grieving in the Knijnenburg home. Our cat of 17years went to be with Jesus...or where ever treasured animals go. We shed some tears and said a prayer to thank God for Duana, our cat, as we celebrated the life of "Mini Kitty", (as she was fondly known in our house) for the 17 years of joy she brought to our family.
While this may be a long way from the loss of human life, in the eyes of a child, the pain is no less real. And I'm reminded that feelings of loss impacts us all in different ways and the connection we have with our surroundings as we remember what is significant to us. We remember Jesus death and resurrection every Sunday at church but today I am caused to reflect on how much we are effected... because sometimes those feeling aren't always there...sometimes we don't feel anything...our thoughts are somewhere else. My prayer today is God help me to greive Jesus' death. And help me to celebrate His resurrection. I want to get emotional about it and I want to be that way on all occations especially on Sunday. |
