Makes no sense

I found out today through FB that a girl I knew briefly in treatment died yesterday after losing her battle with an eating disorder. I am feeling a myriad of emotions from shock, sadness, anger, and deep regret. I know that she fought as best she could, but in the end it wasn't enough and I am so angry on her behalf. She was so young and had so much promise. And this is just an injustice of epic proportions. I feel so sick for her family right now.

I pray that through this time of grief and mourning that our Heavenly Father would be their resting place. I pray that they would know His grace, mercy, and peace. I pray that while this makes no sense, they would be able to see God's goodness and that they would be able to share that with others.

I know that this young lady was a follower of Christ and so I know where she is spending eternity. I pray that she is now at peace, that she is enveloped in the arms of Jesus even now.
