The Celebration is just the Beginning

Romans 14:9  For this very reason, Christ died and returned to life so that he might be the Lord of both the dead and the living.

It been two days since we celebrated the life of Mama Jean and the celebration has not ended!  What an incredible few days it has been.  The life celebration was full of family, extended family and friends all connected by the passing years and her phenomenal life.  Once the majority of the folks had departed the next generation of children and grandchildren remained.   We had a birthday in in the midst that had not yet been celebrated.   Just a few beats and the most melodious rendition of “Happy Birthday” was sung.   This family can sing!!!  At the  moment the mouths opened a glimpse of heaven was provided.  If these few voices are but a hint of the choir when Christ returns, oh glory!!!  It did not end there!  Yesterday at the house with Dad, the voices of Aunts, Grandfather and Uncle raised in song!  Though this journey  began as a celebration of life we continually and constantly celebrate the love and presence of God, in all things!

Making His praise glorious!
