Joy Comes In The Morning Psalm 30:5

"For his anger lasts only a moment, but his favor lasts a lifetime; weeping may remain for a night, but joy comes in the morning." Psalm 30:5

This is true. It is hard to remember when you are weeping though. It is good to be reminded that it doesn't last forever. Even grief has stages. The worst of it will pass.

No one will ever be forgotten but it won't hurt as much to think of them after a bit. You will be able to remember the funny things, the good things, the things that bring a smile instead of tears.

Sometimes it doesn't take too long...sometimes it takes years. And sometimes you think the bad times are done and then you see or hear or smell something and the weeping comes to visit again.

We just have to remember...we will see our loved ones again. It isn't a permanent parting. Not this time anyway. Morning will come...and with it comes Joy.

Lord haste the day!
