Comfort

Long day today because of the sleepless night. Ron Bowen encouraged me to not go to breakfast in the morning. I am taking his advice. We also cancelled the meeting we had tonight so I could rest. Lots of Calgary has the flu. We got word today that one of Emily's classmates dad was killed in a car accident, leaving behind a wife and 5 children, the oldest being Brooke in Em's class. Quite sobering. Not much to write. I did read the bible, but mostly just remembered the stories that I knew. A bride for Isaac, Jesus on the mount of transfiguration and feeding of the five thousand. Always I remember the last verse in Gen 24, "and Isaac was comforted in the death of his mother". That what Audrey is for me - a comfort in my mothers death. I pray that those living might be a comfort to each other in the Geortzen household. God help them I pray.
