Prayer is Love, I want to Love

Remember The Joy – Don’t Grieve

Joy and Heaven
Small yellow-grey Cross

Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free!
I follow the plan God laid for me.
I saw His face, I heard His call,
I took His hand and left it all…
I could not stay another day,
To love, to laugh, to work or play;
Tasks left undone must stay that way.
And if my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss…
Ah yes, these things I, too, shall miss.
My life’s been full, I’ve savoured much:
Good times, good friends, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief—
Don’t shorten yours with undue grief.
Be not burdened with tears of sorrow,
Enjoy the sunshine of the morrow.


Reflection

Be content that loved ones now reside in the protective care of Jesus. Yes, pray for them and recall the good times but, most of all, plan for your own salvation so you can join them. That would be their dearest wish.
