Today as I reflect upon my life and all the things that I could have done but didn't and I came across this.
There have been many heartaches and disappointments. Many trials and tribulations. I've see total desolation. I've encountered times I did not want to carry on.
God has always shown himself when I needed Him most. He has been faithful. He has dried every tear. Healed every heartache. Fed every hunger. Raised me up from rags and ruin on more than one occassion.
I know the days before me are not as many as those that lay behind. However, I know when I draw my last breath and I close my eyes in death, I will immediately open them again and see the face of Jesus. Oh my, I will not make the first steps in my next life on my own. He will be there to guide me to my new home.
Do not sorrow for me when I am gone. Be sorry that life was not kind to me. Be sorry for those who did not like me or despitefully used me.
Be happy that my life will continue in perfection in the land where my mother and friends wait for me.
I can raise my hands in praise again. I will sing with a host of angels praises to my King. I will never grow weary again. My body will never ache, I will not shed another tear in hurt or disappointment. My faith in Jesus will cause my metophorsis into eternity.
I have Him in my heart until the day I reach out to take His hand and cross over Jordan to my eternal home.
