As I sat in the pew today, I can’t help but think of those saints who went before us; some completing a well-lived life, some leaving too soon, some not yet having the chance to experience what life has to offer. I miss them. Not only the ones I knew, but the beautiful and crazy stories their loved ones tell. It reminds me of a saying a dear friend of mine has repeated to me many times: “God is just one step away; they (our loved ones who have died) are just one step away.” The closer we are to God, the closer we feel to those saints who are now with God.
The Lord is near to all who call on him,
to all who call on him in truth. Psalm 145:18
