[Editor’s Note: Another check-in from one of SUMC’s newest friends; again with a response to one of our Lenten Devotion writing prompts: “Here’s a time in my life when someone did a small thing for me – something which became a big deal…”]
The work manager who had introduced me to my spouse just wrote me a letter; it arrived on the third anniversary of my spouse’s death.
Our manager had just heard that my husband had died, and he shared his memories of stories of how we all were, as a work team, way back when…
Although grief seems still fresh on many days, the smiles and caring in this letter touched my heart and gave me great comfort. Thank you, God, for sending me reminders of love and happiness that came from working as a team.
