Seven years. it marks the same as my union. my memories are a gift. a small box. filled. flashes of dream moments. seeing then. living now. I remember.
The Awakening
Death is not a sleep, but an awakening
to Life. Casting off the dreams of
darkness, sorrow, sin and strife-the soul
arising greets the glory of the morning ray-
faring forth into the promise of the golden day.
At the gate that swings between this world
and worlds above-stands the Angel of God’s
mercy with the lamp of love…. Fear not for
the spirit that has passed into the night.
Death is not sleep, but an awakening to
Light.

ReplyDeleteI've thought about your father-in-law so much lately and how the Lord graciously allowed all of you to express your love to one another. What an appropriate quotation.How true.
