Sad news (Original poster: Shelly Lingo)I just got back from a weekend trip to Yuma and my travels took me past Kristin’s cross. That sure brought back a lot of memories; now I read about your sad news. Valerie, you have a special way of bringing comfort and tender words to those around you. I know that you will be a good friend to Whitney’s little sister and the family. There’s not always an answer to “Why”, so don’t look too hard for it… just remember “God Loves Us, and He doesn’t make mistakes.”I’ll be praying for you, Whitney’s family, and the family of the other car whom I’m sure has been traumatized by this whole incident as well.Shelly
Prayers for you (Original poster: Virginia Wiersma)Dear Valerie,We know the pain you and Whitney’s family are having only too well. My heart goes out to you and I will be praying for everyone that God will provide comfort to them.This is a poem I found after we lost Kristin, perhaps it will bring you some peace:THERE IS A REASON FOR EVERYTHINGOur Father knows what’s best for us, so why should we complain.We always want the sunshine, but He knows there must be rain.We love the sound of laughter, and the merriment of cheer,but our hearts would lose their tenderness if we never shed a tear.Our Father tests us often, with suffering and with sorrow.He tests us, not to punish us, but to help us meet tomorrow.For growing trees are strengthened when they withstand the storm,and the sharp cut of the chisel gives the marble grace and form.God never hurts us needlessly, and He never wastes our pain.For every loss He sends to us is followed by rich gain.And when we count the blessings that God has so freely sent,we will find no cause for murmuring, and no time to lament.For our Father loves His children, and to Him all things are plain,so He never sends us pleasures when the soul’s deep need is pain.So when we are troubled, and when everything goes wrong,it is just God working in us to make our spirit strong.(I do not know who the author is.)Love and prayers,Kristin’s Grandma Virginia
