At last week's Heaven Bible Study in my home I was looking for the sugar container to put out with the coffee but I couldn't find it. Then today, as I emptied out my lunch bag there was a bulge in a side pocket. I hadn't looked in to that pocket of the bag for quite some time. As it turned out - not since last summer. In that pocket was the little clear plastic sugar container from my cupboard. Then I remembered. I had taken it to the hospital last summer along with some bacon, a few slices of tomato from our garden, toast and lettuce. I made Jackie a BLT just the way she liked it, right there in the hospital room. She always liked her BLTs with sugar on it.
Then I broke down and wept profusely. I cried for my Jackie and I missed her so much. It's moments like these that overwhelm me without warning at times. Nice memories, special moments we shared together. Never to be had again. At least not until the resurrection. I cannot wait to share special moments with her again in the new heaven and the new earth.
