Tsunami from Katie Cramer's blog, please stop by with a note of comfort for her family

Heart breaking, but we understand all too well, how hard this road is to travel and there will be no "end of the road" on this side of heaven, only when it is time for us to go home, we will SEE the end of the road and SEE the FACE OF GOD and our children who were called home too soon, again.   http://katiecramer.org/

this is from Katie's mom: 

Thankfully, the night ended well.  I picked up Randy Alcorn’s book, Heaven, and my heart was comforted by these words:

“Job, in his anguish, cried out in a vision of striking clarity: “I know that my Redeemer lives, and that in the end he will stand upon the earth. And after my skin has been destroyed, yet in my flesh I will see God; I myself will see him with my own eyes – I, and not another. How my heart yearns within me!” (Job 19:25-27) The anticipation of seeing God face-to-face, in our resurrected bodies, is heartfelt and ancient. …

“…We need not wait till the New Earth to catch glimpses of God. We’re told his “invisible qualities” can be “clearly seen” in “what has been made” (Romans 1:20).  Consider the trees, flowers, sun, rain, and the people around you. Yes, there’s devastation all around us and within us.  Eden has been trampled, burned, and savaged. Yet the stars in the sky nevertheless declare God’s glory (Psalm 19:1), as do animals, art, and music. But our vision is hampered by the same curse that infects all creation. One day both we and the universe will be forever cured of sin. In that day, we will see God.”  (page 175) Hallelujah!

With faith, hope, and love,
