Grace Alone

Earlier this week our dear friend, Jessica Wilkinson, passed from this life into eternity. We have grieved over our loss and rejoiced in knowing that she is home with her Lord. Jessica was diagnosed 3 months ago with Sacrcoma.


Jessica would have been married on December 8,2007. In fact, we had to postpone her bridal shower because she was in the hospital. As I have thought of Jessica's death this week I have thought often that although she did not make it to her wedding here on earth, she had the wedding of her life on Sunday morning. I have many fond memories of times spent with her and I am thankful that God placed her in my life to love as a friend and as a sister in Christ.Today as we celebrated her life at her memorial service I rejoiced in knowing that she has seen God's glory, she is free from pain, suffering, tears, and that she has entered into God's kingdom hearing her savior say, "well done thy good and faithful servant."

Pray for her parents, her brother, and her finacee as they trust in God's mercy and grace to strengthen them in the days, months and years to come.
