To all my friends who’ve come and gone
And those who’ve gone to be with God
I’m glad I knew you
I’m thankful we met
Your love and kindness, I’ll never forget.
I miss your hellos
And your words of encouragement
The things that made you uniquely you
And all the thoughtful things you said
I was more than honored to call you a friend.
And if you’re still alive and well
I wonder do you think of me?
Did I shine a light?
Did I make you smile?
And the time that we shared, were these moments worthwhile?
For I remember you all with so much fondness
I was grateful for the sweet gift of your time
I hope the feeling was mutual
For you’re still a favorite memory of mine.

Love One Another
“By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”
John 13:35
A Full life of Joy in Jesus
“But Timothy now has come back to us from you and has brought us good news about your faith and love. He told us that you always remember us in a good way and that you want to see us just as much as we want to see you. So, brothers and sisters, while we have much trouble and suffering, we are encouraged about you because of your faith. Our life is really full if you stand strong in the Lord. We have so much joy before our God because of you. We cannot thank Him enough for all the joy we feel.
1 Thessalonians 3:6-9
I love this song…<3
“And I will build my life upon your love. It is a firm foundation. And I will put my trust in You alone. And I will not be shaken.”
