I received an e-mail from a hurting heart from the loss of a loved one. They ask if I might have a poem for people who have lost loved ones. At the moment I did not. I drew away in the quietness of the Lord's Glory and ask for some words for this hurting heart and this is what the Lord sent them.
SHARE IN THE GLORY OF A LOVED ONE
This loved one you cherish may now be out
of your physical sight.
Keep this precious soul always in your mind and always praise
their spirited fight.
Never think for a moment their faith was
in vain.
My arms were wrapped around them and helped them endure the pain.
While you enjoyed this wonderful laughter
and caring heart,
Remember my precious ones, they are still living in laughter,
only now they no longer have to dodge the enemy's darts.
You feel as if you have lost even part of
your self.
Be at peace and know your loved one is enjoying Heavens Beautiful
Wealth.
Be happy for this precious one who has
won the race.
Picture them in Heaven, basking in God's Glory upon their face.
Never look upon this passing with sadness
of this precious one.
The Blessings are overwhelming as they walk hand in hand with My
Son.
Keep your hearts and souls pure and
without blemish.
Build up high your crowns which will be waiting for you when your
walk here is finished.
Gather around you all those lives this
precious soul has touched.
Help them to look to Heaven and know their Precious Savior loves
them 'Oh so very much.'
Jesus' arms are wrapped around you and
encompasses you all.
His call to you is 'hold up those remaining and never let them
fall.'
As your thoughts flow in remembrance of
this precious one.
Delight in the Glory that is the prize for the battle won.
