Yesterday's remembrances of the tragic death of President John F. Kennedy aroused many feelings as the events were reviewed, marvelous speeches made, many quoting his actual words, and stories told, some of which had never been heard before. Feelings ranged from sadness to pride, wonder, gratitude and reverence, at times leaving us with tears, and at others with laughter. His impact, his charisma remain strong even 50 years later. Yet we have moved on, at times stumbling, as do families after the death of a loved one. Nothing is ever the same, but on we go.
One way to help this process of recovery is to remember that it is God who accomplishes all things and will continue to do so. We are not left off the hook, however, and must DO our part. We praise God, thank God, and focus on him, not on our own situations and worries, but keep our hearts lifted to him in peaceful and joyfull confidence. Will he who has brought us thus far now abandon us? We don't know the whole story or the big picture, but we do know we can trust God.
