These leaves on an old cedar-shake roof make me think about the words of Jesus regarding people who have passed away.

But in the account of the burning bush, even Moses showed that the dead rise, for he calls the Lord ‘the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’
He is not the God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive.
Luke 20:37,38

It is comforting that Jesus strongly tells us He does not forget us. In fact we are still in His mind as if we are living until the resurrection when all will see His people in living color.
