My dear friend Brother Elmer T. entered heaven tonight. He has gone to be with his Savior, his wife, and so many others. I saw him earlier today, said goodbye, but I miss him already. He is breathing deeply in heaven’s atmosphere, but I miss him on earth. I struggle, unable to find the appropriate words to communicate my sadness, my hope. I know where he is. I miss him.
“Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.” (Psalm 116:15 NIV84)
