From the Heart of Susan Linhares

I totally understand Jesus wanting Jerry to be with Him. What I don’t understand is why I was so blessed to be chosen to be his wife of 47 years. Walking alongside this man of God, this man of prayer, this man full of the Holy Spirit has been the greatest honor and deepest joy of my life. Not only did he teach me everything I know about God, He was my counselor, prayer warrior, Bible teacher, problem solver, and the man I loved. Jerry was an example of overflowing gratitude even in life’s smallest moments. As kind, affectionate, gentle, warm, and loving as he was, when the question was my will or God’s will, I fought a losing battle every time. I’m so very grateful that he held me to a standard of excellence in my spiritual journey that continually stretched me and forced me to dig deeper and reach higher than I could have possibly done alone.
I’ve never known a season as challenging as this one, Jerry and Luke, our family. My heart is shattered, but the gracious, merciful and loving hand of God has continually pierced the darkness in unimaginable ways.
Everyone is saying to me how they would give anything to have witnessed Jerry’s glorious homecoming, the moment he came face to face with his Savior, the One for whom He lived his whole life. Jerry’s rescue was a divine appointment on so many levels. Covid did not take my husband. Jesus did.
Psalm 139:16. “...all the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be.”
