A precious one from our house-
hold is gone, A voice we
loved is stilled, A place
is vacant in our hearts,
Which never can be filled.
Perhaps you weren't ready yet to say good-bye…Perhaps you've thought of things you wish you'd said….well so have I. For one thing, I would have told you not to worry about me…I'm with the Lord in Heaven now; you knew that's where I'd be. I'm sorry that you're feeling sad, for I am so happy now…I've asked the Lord to ease the hurt and comfort you somehow. It's hard in the beginning, but I know you'll make it through. I hope it helps to know that I'll be waiting here for you.
