Last night, very late, as David and I were crawling into bed after a long day, I received the news that my grandmother, Page Tillett, died very suddenly yesterday.  She was feeling unwell and went to the doctor's office, and while in the office she went into cardiac arrest.  They tried for hours to revive her, but she was gone.  My dad flew up to Baltimore immediately and is there making arrangements.  Please be in prayer for my aunt and uncle, my dad and the rest of my family, my cousins and extended family who have all been really shaken by my grandmother's very sudden and unexpected death.  And pray for those who do not know Christ, that they would be driven to seek Him during this time of grief and pain.

 This was the view out of our bedroom window two evenings ago.

 

Heidelberg Catechism Question 1. What is thy only comfort in life and death?

Answer: That I with body and soul, both in life and death, am not my own, but belong unto my faithful Saviour Jesus Christ; who, with his precious blood, has fully satisfied for all my sins, and delivered me from all the power of the devil and so preserves me that without the will of my heavenly Father, not a hair can fall from my head; yea, that all things must be subservient to my salvation, and therefore, by his Holy Spirit, He also assures me of eternal life, and makes me sincerely willing and ready, henceforth, to live unto him.
