Life Goes On
Over the years I've noticed that most of us do not know what to say to those battling illness or families dealing with grief. We make inconsiderate comments without really thinking about what we just said. One that is heard often is "Life goes on". Be careful what you say to one dealing with illness or grief. Sometimes it's better to just say we love you and pray for them. Here is my take on this phrase. May these thoughts below help all of us understand that each step each day is another part of the journey of life.

Life goes on!
Does it?
Life is a journey
It has pauses along the way
It's a path with many twists and turns
The Path of Faith
Moving from darkness to light
Thru faith we make it to the next step
Then the next
Walking ever more closer to God
He lights our way
Shines His lamp upon our feet
If we don't see it
Turn around
Resume the journey
Life goes on!
