Rest in Peace Micah

By the sweat of your face You will eat bread, Till you return to the ground, Because from it you were taken; For you are dust, And to dust you shall return. Genesis 3:19 I love this quote (thank you Kathy); and have found myself returning to it repeatedly over the past week. On Sunday, March 18, my good friend Kelli's husband Micah was killed in a tragic car accident in Nashville, Tennessee. He leaves behind a 2 year old son Brenan, his beautiful wife (Kelli) of 4 years, many loving family and friends. As Kelli surely will be, I have been forever changed by this experience. I went down to Nashville for 4 days to be with Kelli and her family. I got to know Micah's family (especially his mom and sister), and feel like I am a better person for having known them. It's hard to make sense of such a horrible, unexpected event. It's hard to have faith that things are as they should be. It's hard to accept that this little boy will grow up without ever knowing his father. My heart breaks over and over for Kelli. For what she has been through, and for what is sure to experience over the next few years; and beyond. Overall, this has been an eye-opening experience. Reminding me that we are all here on Earth only temporarily; and that we should be good and kind to each other on our journey. I look at my family, and my girls, and feel overcome with gratefulness. I am grateful to be here on this journey with all of you. Many hugs and much love to all :)
