We rarely get to see the big picture this side of heaven, but every now and then God in His mercy gives us a glimpse of it. Recently, my stepmom was telling me the impact my dad had on the lives of the many people they came in contact with over the years. “All his life, he traveled with God,” she told me through her tears. She shared that people they knew were inspired to walk closer to Jesus because of my dad’s influence. I also know of at least two individuals who came to faith in Jesus through Dad’s witness. As I was telling my husband all this, it occurred to me that these are people my dad never would have if my mom hadn’t gone to heaven more than 23 years ago last August. God truly does bring beauty out of ashes. We may not always see how, but He does work all things for good for those who love Him.
