    Learning to live how God instructs us rather than just going along with what society does, is a life long process.I continue to learn new things each year. I am glad you found this article helpful. I hope that you continue to keep studying God’s Word and learning to follow Him more fully.

    Gayle Hoefker Author in "When "Goodbye" Comes Too Suddenly"

    Hello Wanda,
    I am sorry for your loss. Even though you have had 35 1/2 year with your beloved husband, I know you would love to have had more. It is a pain that is hard to bear, but God is there for you and He will always be there to carry you through life's challenges. It seems that you are making some progress by being able to forgive the doctors. Your husband is in the grave awaiting his resurrection. The Bible refers to death figuratively like a state of sleep. He is at peace now. You may find this article taken from one of our study aids helpful. https://www.ucg.org/bible-study-tools/booklets/heaven-and-hell-what-does-the-bible-really-teach/jesus-christ-and-biblical-writers-compare-death-to-sleep
    We all look forward to seeing our loved ones again. Continue seeking God so that you can be there when Christ returns, and you can see your husband again!

    Thanks for the great article! Each calling is special in its own way. All are relevant. None is superior nor inferior.

    Thanks for putting these thoughts down. It is a privilege to be a part of the Work of God and to have a hand in spreading the gospel. We have been given a wake up call. I pray that others will take notice and turn to God.

    Gayle Hoefker in "What Is the Difference Between Sheep and Goats?"

    Excellent! Thanks for the detailed information. I first noticed the similarity between goats and sheep in appearance when we traveled to Tobago in 1986. I am glad to see this explained to many who would not know this detail that goats and sheep can look the same.

    Thanks, Kevin, for pointing out something that we all can do in reality without any extra effort. They say that it takes more muscles to frown than to smile, so why not smile. Thanks for brightening my day!

    Gayle Hoefker in "Parenting From Heart to Heart"

    Thanks for the excellent article! Though my children are grown, I can still use this information with children I interact with now in the congregation and at camp--and my potential grandchildren. Children are the future of the church. We must not neglect them. Also, we will be held accountable for not teaching them if we know to do it.
