IN LOVING MEMORY OF MY FAMILY
Heaven's Roll Call offers inspirational uplifting poems after the death of a family and loved ones. Have you had a loved one die? My mom, dad, only brother, son-in-law, nephew and 2 of my sisters are all in heaven with Jesus. They are healed and no longer suffer any pain. God has blessed me with many good memories of their lives. I sure miss them, but then I remember they're safe in the arms of Jesus.
Weeping may endure for the night, but joy cometh in the morning. Psalm 30:5
To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under heaven. Ecclesiastes 3:1
We all have choices we must make every day. Don't let Satan steal the joy of your loved one's life. Life isn't fair, but we also have to believe that Our Father loves us and knows what the future holds. We can only judge on our past. Death isn't a punishment. It's a medal of honor that God gives to all believers. Your loved one is happy now. Live your life to the fullest by making your life count and being happy, too. Also be thankful for the memories God left behind.
Take time to mourn the death of your loved one. Don't rush the mourning process. Cry when you feel like it. Scream into a pillow if you're angry. It's all normal. It will get better, but it does take time. Life still has a way of tugging at your heart, but over time you will learn how to push it aside and choose to remember your loved one's life. One day like you, I will unite with my family and if you're still alive, don't get scared. I will be screaming and laughing and dancing and singing and clapping and... I think you get the picture! Love your family while they are alive. Forgive their mistakes and forgive your own, too.
I'll See You Again
