LIFE

Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father's house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. You know the way to the place where I am going." John14:1-4

Don't cry for me.

It was just my time, but I will see you someday on the other side.

Don't cry for me.

I am not alone.

The angels are with me to welcome me home.

Don't cry for me, for I "have no fear.

All my pain is gone, and Jesus took my tears.

Don't cry for me.

This is not the end.

I'll be waiting here for you when we meet again.

My son of all the precious gifts in life however great or small – to have you as my son was the greatest gift of all. – to lose someone so special is really hard to bear it hardly seems believable that you’re no longer there you left us far too early before your time, it seems and now you’ll never have the chance to fulfill all those dreams however hard it is though we’ll take comfort in the thought of all the memories we have and the happiness you brought you always lived life to the full but ours won’t be the same. Until the day when we can see your smiling face again.

,

We little knew that day, God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly, in death, we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you. You did not go alone.

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us beautiful memories; your love is still our guide.

And although we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

Our family chain is broken, and nothing seems the same, But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.

,

We thought of you today. But that is nothing new.

We thought about you yesterday and days before that too.

We think of you in silence. We weren't ready to say goodbye As we looked around and realized, that you’re not here anymore You drifted away and took the master’s call There was no choice, but to let you go.

Death takes the body; God gets the spirit…

And loved ones hold the memories forever

, ,

, If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane.

I would walk right up to Heaven and bring you back again.

No farewell words were spoken, no time to say “Goodbye”.

You were gone before I knew it, and only God knows why.

My heart still aches with sadness, and secret tears still flow.

What it meant to love you –No one can ever know.

But now I know you want me to mourn for you no more.

To remember all the happy times, life still has much in store.

Since you’ll never be forgotten, I pledge to you today A hollowed place within my heart is where you’ll always stay.
