Grace

This precious family's young son went to be with the Lord this morning.  He had a mitochondrial disease and has been declining for a number of months.  But even though the family had been aware that the events of this morning were coming at some point, the reality is still difficult to deal with.

Both of these parents graduated from our school in the nineties.  They have a wonderful testimony and counted it a privilege to care for their special needs son.  They have been blessed with inordinate amounts of grace throughout the experience, and I'm sure that God is carrying them now.

That would be so hard. I'm trusting God's grace to sustain them -- nothing else could.
