If you have been following me for a while, you know that on October 13, my younger sister, Christa, passed away from cancer at the age of 35. Like many of you, 2020 has been the hardest year of my life. But as I look back on her life and death, God has taught me several things along the way. I have been thinking about writing this post for a while, but as I was doing my devotions this morning, I felt God telling me that today was the day.
Truth be told, I have been putting off writing this post because sometimes, I just don’t know what to say. 2020 has been quite the year. I have had several people say to me, “Don’t you wish we could just fast forward to 2021?” But honestly, despite the amount of sorrow I have felt during 2020, it has also been a time that God is refining me and teaching me to lean on him more.
