Grief/Loss:
We all  face this in our lifetimes!  What to do about it?  I bring this up because it has come to my husband's family this month.  We lost another nephew last year.  Both young and "unexpected."
I would like to share a few Bible verses for comfort.  At the end of this post, I will share some ideas on what we can do to keep busy.   What can we do to honor those we know that have "passed on?"

Cast all your anxiety on (God) because he cares for you~1Peter 5:7 (NIV)
If you ask God into your heart and tell Him your troubles, He will comfort you!

Jesus said, "Because I live, you also will live ~ John 14:19
Christ's victory over death gives us all hope in any sorrow!

Most of you either crochet, knit or do crafts.

 1- Create something special in honor of your loved one.
Did they have a "special interest?"  If they loved animals, you could donate crocheted, knitted, or sew blankets for your local shelters. 
2-  Are there children/grandchildren left behind?  Make something for them with your loved one's name on it.  You can use your yarn needle to hand stitch their name(it's easier than you think). 
3-  Have a "craft" night.  Invite family/friends to come and help with crafts that you can donate to your favorite charities, in honor of your loved one.

Be creative-Be inspired!
Have a "blessed weekend!"
