Lesson 811: Unexpected Losses

 Hello, Readers.

It's a Friday night here at the Lamp Post.

We had two unexpected losses this week.

The lighter of the two

was the loss of a football game tonight.

It was one of those nights that was perfect.

Sam played one of the best games of his life.

Winning almost the entire game.

And then came the last part.

They will learn and move on.

The other unexpected loss was the brother of a friend.

The little brother.

Life seemed to be perfect.

Living and loving and cooking up a storm.

Then it all came to an expected end.

So, Eloise is sad tonight.

And when I'm sad,

the 

words

aren't 

always 

there.

Instead,

I'll talk through my photos

and 

share a a story that is not my own,

but so worthy of the retell.

To bring hope 

to the hopeless,

Eloise offers God's promise of hope--

the RAINBOW

Next,

your weekend homework,

required of all Readers.

social awareness

and 

communication.
