Farewell

Dear Lord,
Help me understand why my loved one had to die.
Help me to quit asking you 'why?'
Help me understand that only you know why things happen
The way they do.
Help me understand that only you can heal my broken heart.
And that one day we'll meet again to never part.
Help me understand that for now I just have to let things be,
But that you will always be there to comfort me.
And though I may be living my worst fears,
One day you will make sure there are no more tears.

Beloved June 9, 2008

THE FINAL FLIGHT HOME

During your journey on your final flight home.
White wings will carry you and you will be flown.
To the pearly gates of Heaven, where they will usher you in.
To the feet of your Lord, your Saviour, and your friend.
He will hold you in his arms and the angels will sing.
As another one of His children is delivered by white wings.

FOR EVERYTHING THERE IS A SEASON

For everything there is a season,
And a time for every matter under heaven:
A time to be born, and a time to die;
A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;
A time to kill, and a time to heal;
A time to break down, and a time to build up;
A time to weep, and a time to laugh;
A time to mourn, and a time to dance;
A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together;
A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing;
A time to seek, and a time to lose;
A time to keep, and a time to throw away;
A time to tear, and a time to sew;
A time to keep silence, and a time to speak;
A time to love, and a time to hate,
A time for war, and a time for peace.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

The Journey

Birth is a beginning And death a destination But life is a journey A going -- a growing From stage to stage From childhood to maturity And youth to age. From innocence to awareness And ignorance to knowing; From foolishness to discretion And then perhaps, to wisdom. From Weakness to strength Or strength to weakness And, often, back again. From health to sickness And back we pray, to health again. From offense to forgiveness, From loneliness to love, From joy to gratitude, From pain to compassion, And grief to understanding -- From fear to faith. From defeat to defeat to defeat -- Until, looking backward or ahead, We see that victory lies Not as some high place along the way, But in having made the journey, stage by stage. A sacred pilgrimage. Birth is a beginning And death a destination. But life is a journey, A sacred pilgrimage -- Made stage by stage -- To life everlasting.

~~~~~
Remembering Samuel Boakye & Family
May you find the strength you need in God Almighty; He can give you the peace that will surpass all understainding.

Goodbye Daddy

Goodbye Daddy
The feeling is so intense and very painful.We regret that some of us are too young to comprehend the meaning of losing you but the older ones promise to give the babies amongst us and others yet to be born every vivid description of our experience with you,so that they will also grow up knowing what a great man you were and how much you meant to us.

Lend me your hope for awhile

Lend me your hope for awhile.
I seem to have mislaid mine.
Lost and hopeless feelings accompany me daily.
Pain and confusion are my companions.
I know not where to turn.
Looking ahead to the future times
does not bring forth images of renewed hope.
I see mirthless times, pain-filled days,
and more tragedy.
Lend me your hope for awhile,
I seem to have mislaid mine.
Hold my hand and hug me;
listen to all my ramblings.
I need to unleash the pain and let it tumble out.
Recovery seems so far distant;
the road to healing a long and lonely one.
Stand by me; offer me your presence.
Your ears and your love
acknowledge my pain. It is so real and ever present.
I am overwhelmed with sad and conflicting thoughts.
Lend me your hope for awhile,
A time will come when I will heal
and I will lend my renewed hope to others

If tears could build a stairway

If tears could build a stairway
and memories were a lane,
I would walk right up to heaven
to bring you home again
No farewell words were spoken
No time to say goodbye
You were gone before I knew it,
and only GOD knows why.
My heart still aches in sadness,
and secret tears still flow.
What it means to lose you,
no one will ever know.
If I could have a lifetime wish,
a dream that would come true.
I would wish with all my heart,
for yesterday and you.
A thousand words can't bring you back,
I know because I've tried.
Neither will a million tears,
I know because I've cried.
You left behind our broken hearts,
and happy memories too.

You will never be replaced

You were a gift sent straight from Heaven.
Given to us from God above.
We didn't know how much you would teach us
About the meaning of true love...
For true love sometimes means letting go
Of someone precious and dear.
That is what we were forced to do...
Although we wanted to keep you here!!!
However, this is quite a selfish wish.
One we know we should ignore...
But, uncle Dan, we truly do believe
That God must have needed you more...
Perhaps to be an Angel now,
Full of wisdom and love...
Watching over those of us who love you
From the shining stars above.
We miss you more than you can know.
You will never be replaced...
In our hearts and memories forever,
Will be your sweet and innocent sleeping face
