sorry for your lost

four simple words, and yet it is so hard to be expressed.

what exactly do you say to someone who has just lost their loved ones? i have no idea. having lost a loved one myself, i couldn't remember exactly what people has said to me. words of comfort and encouragement that is all i know.

today i found myself really lost for words, and all that i could do was to pray.

prayer. what a great gift. in times especially when nothing can be done, a prayer is the best that one can offer. a prayer for comfort. a prayer for peace. or a prayer for understanding.

"...pray for each other..." - james 5:16

would like you to know that there are 6 lovely children who are in constant reminder of their memorable teacher that has mattered so much in their lives :) plus one replacement teacher that will continue to pray for your well being and make sure the rest of us will always put you in our prayers.
God is bigger than our troubles, closer than you think
