A wise friend recently described the absence we face when a loved one dies like a missing limb in our lives.  Dealing with the aftermath of deep loss, learning to live without someone who is a part of who you are, it hurts beyond what you could ever imagine until you have been through it.  It's the worst.  And yet faith in Jesus, His empty tomb, assures us that the "worst is not the last (Rev.
