Gentleman was leaving at the same time.
I asked him, "Were you at the grief support group?"
"Yes, my wife died in January of liver cancer."
"I'm so sorry I said. "It's such a short time for you."
We compared notes, consoled each other, and
Agreed that God wanted to teach us to
Depend on Him.
But the man wasn't able to contain his grief.
As he tried to stop the tears streaming down his
Cheeks, I looked straight into his face and said,
"I promise you. It will get better."
The widower wanted to believe my words.
But his despairing eyes revealed to me that
He wasn't yet able.
