A great guy from my youth group nammed Ben Dossett passed away yesterday in a motorcycle accident.
Today was supposed to be his High School gradutation day.
His funeral is on Saturday.
I first met Ben on a mission trip to Mexico; he was full of laughter and genuine kindness. Those around him loved and enjoyed his friendship. My heart broke when hearing the news and even now as I write this. I will never understand death, the why, the unfairness of it and the questions it brings. Why a high school senior who has his entire life in front of him – loses it.
I never find answers…
only tears…
and a comforting thought that God is still faithful and in control.
Pray for Ben’s family (Dwayne & DeRhonda and his brother Jonathan), pray for his friends, for peace.
For my girls who are left to mourn; some of his good friends (Sarah, Kelsey, Macy, Ilsa…) I can’t imagine what you are going thru and i’m so sorry that I can’t be there with you right now. Know that I’m praying for you, for peace and comfort. I love you! E-mail me anytime you need to.
