The Bridge of Peace
Cindy Woodsmall

      When she and Grey had returned from the hospital the day of the
incident, her Daed had asked not to stay and not to visit. While in the
waiting room of the hospital during her surgery, Grey had to answer
a lot of questions for the police and for the church leaders. According
to her Daed, it didn't take long for the church leaders to realize Grey
cared for her. When they asked Grey, he didn't deny it, and the church
began discussing what to do. a few hours later a preacher confided to
her Daed that because Grey and Lena had been through so much together
this past year, they were considering freeing him of the usual time
restraints and protocol on a widower. But the preacher cautioned her
Daed that Grey needed to keep his distance until a decision was reached.
    
To me this passage means a lot. First ti brings hope to people that there is someone out there who will love you. Second it brings peace to those who are suffering hard times. Third it lets people know there is such thing as love. This is what this passage means to me.
