For some things there are no shortcuts,no easy remedies when life throws you a curve ball and brings you to your knees.Sometimes it seems you can't win however hard you try when your faith is sorely tested and all you do is cry.It does no good to gripe,complain,when you're not up to par because true friends will understand and love us as we are.We sometimes need a helping hand before we see the light,and just knowing prayers are answered will help us through the night.We're not alone in time like these unless we choose to be,for God won't leave us comfortless in times of tragedy.There are angels all around us to catch us when we fall,and through His tender mercies we can rise above it all.Clay Harrison(Author) PatrickJay*GrdMama

The Broken Chain

We little knew that morning that God was going to all your name,

In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide,

And though we cannot see you, you are always at our side.

--Author Unknown

God saw you getting tired
and a cure was not to be
so he put his arms around you
and whispered,
"Come to Me"

 

With tearful eyes we watched you
and saw you pass away
and although we love you dearly
we could not make you stay.

 

A Golden heart stopped beating
hard working hands at rest.
God broke our hearts to prove us
he only takes the best

My deepest condolences.  May these few words from the Holy Scriptures bring you comfort in you time of grief...

John 11:32-45

32 And so Mary, when she arrived where Jesus was and caught sight of him, fell at his feet, saying to him: “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.” 33 Jesus, therefore, when he saw her weeping and the Jews that came with her weeping, groaned in the spirit and became troubled; 34 and he said: “Where have YOU laid him?” They said to him: “Lord, come and see.” 35 Jesus gave way to tears. 36 Therefore the Jews began to say: “See, what affection he used to have for him!” 37 But some of them said: “Was not this [man] that opened the eyes of the blind man able to prevent this one from dying?”

38 Hence Jesus, after groaning again within himself, came to the memorial tomb. It was, in fact, a cave, and a stone was lying against it. 39 Jesus said: “TAKE the stone away.” Martha, the sister of the deceased, said to him: “Lord, by now he must smell, for it is four days.” 40 Jesus said to her: “Did I not tell you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 41 Therefore they took the stone away. Now Jesus raised his eyes heavenward and said: “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. 42 True, I knew that you always hear me; but on account of the crowd standing around I spoke, in order that they might believe that you sent me forth.” 43 And when he had said these things, he cried out with a loud voice: “Laz´a·rus, come on out!” 44 The [man] that had been dead came out with his feet and hands bound with wrappings, and his countenance was bound about with a cloth. Jesus said to them: “Loose him and let him go.”

45 Therefore many of the Jews that had come to Mary and that beheld what he did put faith in him;
