I just want to write and tell you that I am
doing fine the peace and beauty here surpasses
all my dreams.
When I was still with you I knew God's Word
said eye has not seen nor ear has heard no
mind conceived what God has prepared for them
that love Him; and now I know by sight that what
God say's He means.

I know the day you said your last good-bye to
me was filled with tears and pain.
But God didn't promise us a rose garden without
some growing rain.

So when you think about me just remember what I
say I don't want you to think I didn't love you or
that I didn't care.
But one day here with Jesus is better than all my
days down there.

My Lord and Savior said the death of His Saints
is precious in His sight.
So when you think about me and you start to
feel sad just remember where I am then everything
will be all right.

I only hope and pray one day you will join me in
this heavenly home and then we'll praise our Savior
and our Father up above for all that they have done.
We will give them all the glory for the victory that they won.
Psalm 116:15 ~ Precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints.
I wrote this poem in menory of my sister . I tried to think that if she could write to us what would she say , so I wrote this because it sounds like what she would say if she could.

What a precious write!  I'm sorry you're sister's passed on.  So often I try to picture my 2 children smiling at Jesus' awesomeness. It does help ease our pain.  Thank you for sharing this.

  God bless

It is beautiful. I am sure if your sister could read this she would be very proud of you. You have captured the thoughts of what we might think once we pass to the other side very well. Your sister is at peace and you are right - she does not want you to mourn for long. You are very brave for being able to write a poem in her honour even now that she is gone. And I am sorry for you loss but I rejoice because she is so far better off than you or I that no words will ever express what she is experiencing right now, at this moment. Blessings to you and keep up the heartfelt work.
