It was painful to dispose what they had treasured in the last 60 years, 80 years. Their beds, their mattresses, their tools, their cookery, their dressing table, their photograph albums, their favorite clothing.
However I did that. I cleared out their favorite things which they treasured. I need to face the fact that they had left.
What is left is their empty home; and my memories.
And over time, I know my memories will also fade. But it would be a long long time.
Meanwhile I still pray for them. That God will grant them His loving grace. That in the new world, they would recognize Jesus Christ and dwell with Him in the Father's House (John 14:2).
God's lovingkindness and mercy is eternal.
