My thoughts this week
have been filled with eternity.
A dear friend just left this earth,
and now there is a void in my heart
and in the hearts of all who loved her.
Are you missing someone dear?
Can we face sorrow together?
Are you missing someone dear?
Can we face sorrow together?
I Miss You
Your death leaves a hole
You have found the secret place
But my heart still burns
--Bettie GilbertAnd while my heart still grieves,
there is a hope that goes deeper
than any pain could touch,
A waiting for the time
our paths will connect again.
My dear one is at the feet of Jesus
Her pain no longer consumes
Her soul has found relief
And her body is set free.
Heaven of Love
The secret of God
Rests in His Heaven of Love
My soul burns to go
--Bettie GilbertI pray you find the comfort that Jesus brings
Sharing in our sorrows
And bearing all our grief.
