Death, like a thief, strikes unexpectedly.
We know it would come. It’s inevitable.
But we all have a preferred time.
My heart bleeds and rejoices at the same time.
I lost a friend almost a week ago and I just found out.
My heart bleeds. I wasn’t there in her final moments.
Death, without permission, took her away.
Tears rolling down my cheeks, eyes constantly watery.
My heart bleeds. I’d never see her here again.
Her joy. Her love. Her companionship. Her friendship. Gone!
But it also rejoices.
It rejoices cos we have a great hope.
Cos we have eternal life.
My heart rejoices.
One day!; I’m not sure when; but one day, we’d be united, never to be separated again.
My heart leaps for joy!
We’d see again, where there’s no suffering or pain.
Until then, I’d hold on to hope.
I’d cry and wipe my tears.
I’d weep and be comforted in the Lord.
I’d sing cos Jesus counted us worthy of His sacrifice.
Until then, I’d continue to seek out people to be added to our family.
Our family in Christ!
Until then, beloved, the sun will shine on us again.
