Sue "The Hat Lady"

My sister emailed today with the news that Sue "The Hat Lady" Errington, lost her battle with the beast on March 21st. I am so thankful that Sue is with the Lord. Even though the Lord didn't choose to heal her on this side of heaven, she is completely healed now. I bet the hats that she's making in heaven are magnificent to behold. I'm so thankful that I had the opportunity to meet her at one of Margie's chemo sessions. We were able to get to know each other through the Cheer Songs. She was such an inspiration to me with her unwavering faith and never give up spirit. I am listing below part of the obituary her family wrote about her.

Sue Spencer Errington
"'Sue,' what a blessing" she has been to our family, our church and our community. She lived her testimony of faith everyday. I expect she will be missed at Jackson Oncology as well ... as she was better known as "The Hat Lady." She made and decorated a different hat for every holiday or occasion to wear when she would go for treatment to always brighten the spirits of others who were there. This evolved into the "Hat Ministry" and allowed her to speak in various churches and share her testimony of God's grace. She has been an inspiration at home and abroad in her daily walk. Through it all, her faith never waivered. We will miss her greatly as we continue to serve an unfailing God.

Today's Cheer Song is "Homesick" by Mercy Me. I pray it will minister to your heart.

Homesick

You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand timesAnd at
least a thousand times I've rejoiced for youBut the reason why I'm broken, the
reason why I cryIs how long must I wait to be with youI close my eyes and I see
your faceIf home's where my heart is then I'm out of placeLord, won't you give
me strength to make it through somehowI've never been more homesick than nowHelp
me Lord cause I don't understand your waysThe reason why I wonder if I'll ever
knowBut, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the sameCause I'm still here
so far away from homeI close my eyes and I see your faceIf home's where my heart
is then I'm out of placeLord, won't you give me strength to make it through
somehowI've never been more homesick than nowIn Christ, there are no goodbyesAnd
in Christ, there is no endSo I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I haveTo see you
againTo see you againAnd I close my eyes and I see your faceIf home's where my
heart is then I'm out of placeLord, won't you give me strength to make it
through somehowWon't you give me strength to make it through somehowWon't you
give me strength to make it through somehowI've never been more homesick than
now
