She is a woman of great strength
and you wonder how could she be
as she had experienced such grief & loss
in her life,
yet she kept going.
She told me.
And it sent shivers down my spine
because we had something in common
that would keep us together forever into eternity~
Her LORD & SAVIOR JESUS CHRIST,
who she is now with
as she just left this earth.
My sweet aunt
married to my dad's twin
mother
grandmother
great grandmother
and
a snow white to so many animals.
As I think of her
all I see is her smile
and her bright heart
that was always filled with a
supernatural JOY
that could never be produced
on her own.
That JOY
that lit up a room
without her even saying a word.
That PEACE
that transcends all understanding.
That LOVE
that embraced everyone
because that is who she is.
I cherish the memory
of our GOD conversations
that connected us forever.
So Aunt Darlene
thank you for your heart
thank you for beaming the Light of JESUS
for whom is your LORD & SAVIOR.
May you all hold to the TRUTH
as you continue your journey
through this life
and
PUT JESUS IN YOUR STORY
because
HE has a place for you in HIS STORY
just as HE promised~
“Do not let your heart be troubled (afraid, cowardly).
Believe [confidently] in GOD and trust in HIM, [have faith, hold on to it, rely on it, keep going and] believe also in ME.
In MY FATHER'S house are many dwelling places.
If it were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and I will take you to MYSELF, so that where I am you may be also.
And [to the place] where I am going, you know the way.”
Thomas said to HIM, “LORD, we do not know where
YOU are going; so how can we know the way?”
JESUS said to him,
“I am the [only] Way [to GOD] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life;
no one comes to the FATHER but through ME" (John 14:1-6).
Therefore,
keep the FAITH
just like my aunt
for we are
"ALMOST HOME" (listen to the song below)
