conjectural navel gazing; jesus in lint form: anticipated grief?

conjectural navel gazing; jesus in lint form

Don't lose any opportunity, however small, of being gentle toward everyone. Don't rely on your own efforts to succeed in your various undertakings, but only on God's help. Then rest in his care of you, confident that he will do what is best for you, provided that you will, for your part, work diligently but gently. I say "gently" because a tense diligence is harmful both to our heart and to our task and is not really diligence, but rather over eagerness and anxiety...I recommend you to God's mercy. I beg him, through that same mercy, to fill you with his love. - Francis de Sales

anticipated grief?

Tomorrow I will be at John's funeral. Trish and I will leave early from Chicago. If anyone wants to come with, shoot me an email.

In much lighter news, this is the last full week of internet access. We still do not have internet access at home. And, as I will be unemployed come Thursday of next week, I am getting a little anxious. Whatever will I do without email?! Whatever will I do without my blog to keep me warm in the wee hours of the morning?

Sigh.

Keep John's family in your prayers.
