Future friends that aren't going to be

During our visit with Chris & Kristen today we learned that a man I met on my Walk to Emmaus took his own life a few weeks ago. There is an ice-breaking session to start an Emmaus weekend and Bob was my “new found friend”. I guess I thought that one day we might be friends beyond an ice-breaking exercise, but that's not meant to be.

Our hearts go out to Martha and her family. May God grant you His peace.




God, build in me the courage to make friends faster.

Why would someone that went on that walk do that to themselves? They should have seen more than just themselves in this life. Life is hard at times, and we may all go thru alot, but we can't give up. We can trust in God though. And He is always there for us.
