Such a sad time for such a beautiful family. She and I had some wonderful conversations during the night, the last few times I cared for this precious lady. We talked about eternity and the sufficiency of God's Grace. For by grace are ye saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast
Ephesians 2:8-9
