How blest are those
‘God saw all that he had made – and it was very good.
When we mourn the loss of a friend,
there is something very comforting
in the thought that he or she has gone before the all-holy God –
yes, perhaps with a weariness at the end of a journey
and the wounds of their humanity on them
but with all the complications of their lives
their hearts and their hands have been filled with so much that is so good.
‘God saw all that he had made – and it was very good.
