How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?
It hurt a great deal when my parents died. God fulfilled the number of their days, and I trust his calling them to Glory to be with Him, yet I am human and it hurts.
But, I realize that if they stayed, I would not grow spiritually. Even though I am an adult I still have a way to mature. My age is nothing compared to my state of mind. I may be older in body but my mind and understanding need to catch up.
As I look back, I see I can trust in the Lord and rely on Him and not on people.
