As my church was praying for Edith and Jill.
A thought entered my mind.
What will life be like without Susan or Cindy or Jill or my mum?
They've been amazing in my life.
Got me through the good and the bad.
There will be a time when we'll be praying for Susan.
There will be a time when the tears fall down my cheek because Cindy isn't there.
There will be a time when I pick up the phone to call mum just to remember that she isn't there.
There will be a time when He Leadeth Me will play and I'll think of Jill's funeral.
How will I get through?
How many tears will I shed?
How many years will I live without them?
How could I have thought that they would live forever?
They're mortal.
Just like me.
Just like Edith.
Just like Jill.
Just like grandma.
Just like Jesus.
They're only mortal.
I wrote this while we were praying. I was praying and this just came to me. I couldn't help but write this on the church bulletin as that was the only paper near me. Hope you understand and that this piece connects to you in some sort of way.

I think enjoy might have been the wrong word. Understand maybe is more accurate.
