Into your hands, O Lord
we humbly entrust our sister Terri
In this life you embraced her with your tender love;
deliver her now from every evil
and bid her enter eternal rest.
 
The old order has passed away:
welcome her then into paradise,
where there will be no sorrow, no weeping nor pain,
but the fullness of peace and joy
with your Son and the Holy Spirit
for ever and ever.

 Amen.

For TERRI and my GRANDMA...

ALL I FEEL, AND HOW I CRY..

I fall to my knees, and I wail…
Why? Dear god oh why?

She fell, her big sin, she fell. She collapsed, she fell

All the life, all the love, all of it gone. Forgotten … she is not what she once was… she is not as “useful” to us… her sin, again, she fell…

She is not perfect.. she is not the way we would have her…. She is soooo inconvenient..

So she is what… gone.. why keep her here.. why bother… why not take her where she is loved, for we don’t… we see the imperfect… we see the trouble to take care of her…. I wail because I want her.. I want her here where I can love her.. I can care for her.. but no- you take her.. but why…

Because we did not cherish her. You will won’t you…

We are this could we are this callous.. her life. Not what we would want.. not what we would have. Not what we want to nurture..

But you will won’t you… you will feed her.. you will love her…

We failed her…

We failed… and so we lose her…
