Broken Hallelujah
February 25, 2010

This morning, many will gather in Dallas/Ft. Worth to lift up the families who’ve said good-bye to their precious daughter/spouse/sister/friend/mother. I know of no better song than Cohen’s Hallelujah.

I realize my comment is a little insensitive & petty in light of your post. So sorry. I’m so saddened to hear about the loss of a beautiful life. Her family will be in my prayers.

I’d love to hear your thoughts. The entire church sang two of the verses today, remarkable.

Incredible message of a life lived for God today. I am privileged to know Rick and Beverly and have learned to love their family deeply. Josh and Jonathon (or Screech and Carlton depending on how you look at it) blew me away as they honored their sister in life and their sister in Christ. I know love was pervasive in that room today.
