Missing Jack

This family has really been on my heart lately.

Check out this blog.

I alluded to this in another one of my posts that I wrote back in October when I was just started to blog. Now, the story is told in the blog, but I will give you a synopsis. One of my little brother's best friends passed away in September. Davis goes to a small private school and he has known this boy, Jack, since 3rd grade. This year they entered 7th grade together. This blog is the blog of Jack's mother, Anna. She is an incredible writer and has been a secret blogger for years. She changed the names of her two kids and husband to protect their identity, but after the incident with Jack, the blog has been a journal and documentation of how she is struggling with grief.

My heart has been breaking for them lately. This past Sunday would have been Jack's 13th Birthday. I cannot imagine how hard it must have been for them to go through this weekend wishing more than anything that their precious boy could have been with them.

I have just been rambling as I always do, but the point of this blog post is to encourage whoever might be reading to lift this family up in prayer. They have been on my heart. I am encouraged by Anna's honesty in dealing with her grief and the authenticity of her emotions. I continue to want to her heart to mend and the Lord's peace and sovereignty to wash over their family. Please pray for the Donaldsons.Read Anna's blog. You will not regret it. I assure you.
