Prayers are needed for FReeper Yorkie. She is traveling to be with her dad who will be making his journey to see our Lord at any time.
Prayers, dear Father, that Yorkie's journey will be safe and that her father's passing will be as peaceful as possible. Please let Yorkie and her family feel your presence at this time. In Jesus' Name, Amen
Praying for you, your dad & family..Pandy
My father passed away in his sleep early this morning.
I wish I could thank each one of you personally for your prayers and concern. Your support and kindness has been overwhelming this past month, and is sincerely appreciated.
I will read this at his memorial service:
Rabbi Joshua Loth Liebman wrote,
“I often feel that death is not the enemy of life, but its friend, for it
is the knowledge that our years are limited which makes them so precious.
It is the truth that time is but lent to us, which makes us, at our best,
look upon our years as a trust handed into our temporary keeping. We are
like children, privileged to spend a day in a great park, a park filled
with many playgrounds and azure tinted lakes with white boats sailing upon
tranquil waves.
True, the day allotted to each one of us is not the same in length, in
light, in beauty. Some children of earth are privileged to spend a long
sunlit day in the garden of the earth.
For others, the day is shorter, cloudier, and dusk descends more quickly
as in a winters tale.
But, whether our life is a long summery day or a short wintry afternoon,
we know that inevitably there are storms and squalls which overcast even
the bluest heaven and there are sunlit rays which pierce the darkest
autumn sky. The day that we are privileged to spend in the great park of
life is not the same for all human beings, but there is enough beauty and
joy and gaiety in the hours if we will but treasure them.
Then, for each one of us the moment comes when the great nurse, death,
takes man, the child, by the hand and quietly says, It is time to go
home. Night is coming. It is your bedtime, child of earth. Come, youre
tired.
Lie down at last in the quiet nursery of nature and sleep. Sleep well. The
day is gone. Stars shine in the canopy of eternity.”
That’s beautiful, yorkie...
We’re with you, today, and over the next few days.
Our prayers for God to give you strength continue.
