Mia Love was taken too soon. We don’t know why people die when and how they do. This scripture brings some people solace.
“Good people pass away; the godly often die before their time. But no one seems to care or wonder why. No one seems to understand that God is protecting them from the evil to come.” Isaiah 57:1 (NLT).
Mia Love was a trail blazer. The larger story is why did it take so long to elect a black Republican female to Congress. We should ponder that as we mourn Mia and her accomplishments on earth.
How many of you need extra peace today?
Jesus is with us now and forever.
He will never leave nor forsake us.
“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11: 28-30 (NIV). #Bible #Peace #Rest #meditation
