Lord, remind me that no matter what comes my way,
Your love and grace are greater than any challenges I may face.
Thank You for Your constant presence in my life and for always being my hope and strength.
Amen.

I am Free

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free.
I’m following the path God has chosen for me.
I took His hand when I heard Him call;
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
to laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I’ve found now peace at the end of the day.

If my parting has left a void,
then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;
Oh yes, these things, I too will l miss.

Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
look for the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life’s been full, I savored much;
good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.

Perhaps my time seems all too brief;
don’t lengthen your time with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and peace to thee,
God wanted me now – He set me free.

Echoes In Her Smile

Her laughter still echoes in my mind
A sound so pure and bright
Her smile, a ray of sunshine
That filled my life with light

Her touch, a gentle caress
A memory I can’t forget
Her love, a warm embrace
A bond I won’t regret

She’s gone, but not forgotten
Her spirit lives on within
Her memory, a treasured token
Of the love she left behind

We shall exist, entwined in bliss.
A tapestry of shared experiences, we hold dear,
Guiding us forward, casting out all fear."

"Till we meet again
In our heavenly home
Beyond the starry sky.

Welcomed by angels singing
Ushered to His glorious presence
You stand tall with face glowing,
Free from tears and pain."

Don't cry for me now I have I've gone away,
for I'm still here I'm by your side,
My body's gone but my soul is here,
please don't shed another tear,
I am still here I'm all around, only my body lies in the ground.
