This poem is dedicated to my brother who went home to be with the Lord. Mr Peter Stribling. Peter we all miss you so much, But we have the assurance that you are safe in the arms of Jesus. And because of this, we know that we will see you again... If one of your love ones has gone home to be with the Lord, I pray that you will find comfort in this scripture and this poem. I am a living witness that Jesus will give you the peace that passes all understanding... He who believes in me will live, even if he dies... St John 11:25 Pete How can we let go of the one whom we all loved so much? Even though we know that you are in Heaven, we long to feel your gentle touch. We remember how we used to look. into your big brown eyes. Losing you hurt us so much, all we could do was cry. But the good thing is that before you left us, you cried Lord please save me. And because of this we will see you again, and what a day of rejoicing that will be. But until that day, there is still so much work on earth to do. If you are not saved and you are reading this, the next person to go home could be you! If I were you I wouldn't take a chance, ask Jesus in to your heart before He closes the door. You will not regret your decision to except Him, you will have pleasures forever more. Thoughts given by, "The Holy Spirit" To: Karen Showell 8/14/98 © |
