Dearest Marie,

You are just going to have to trust me on this: God sees. He understands exactly how difficult it is to watch helpless as someone you love suffers. Remember He watched His Son die the brutal death of the cross. He has not forsaken you and Ed just as He did not forsake our Lord. You have every justification to feel abandoned in this time of great trial and despair. After all, our Lord cried out in the midst of His suffering, "My God, My God! Why hast thou forsaken me?" You, dear Marie, are only human and I believe it is very human to question your faith in moments of overwhelming pain and sadness.

God was waiting for His Son with open arms. He is waiting for Ed, too. What a beautiful reunion that shall be.

At the end of the day, all we have is our faith...
