Thank you, sweet daughter, this filled my heart with hope. Let us remember the "Gospel G's": Gethsemane (where He was denied and betrayed, so we could be embraced as friends), Gabbatha (where He was pronounced "guilty" so we could know there is "no condemnation in Christ"), Golgotha (where He laid down His life willingly out of love for the Father and His people so that we could be forgiven, and be cleansed from our sins), Garden-Grave (where He was laid to rest on the final Sabbath Day of the Time of Promise, and by the power of the Father through the Spirit burst forth as a living and fruitful seed-harvest to transform death into a door of hope in Him), and Glory (where He breathed on His own the Holy Spirit, offered peace even to deniers who are fickle, frail, forgetful, and fearful sinners, and was taken up to glory in our humanity!). Now, we worship and serve. We wait with patient expectation for His bodily and glorious return! Amen, and amen. Love you, Daddy

And somehow, grief and hope existed in embrace…
