The Walls Are Aching~

Dear, darling Donya...
She left this earthly precipice not long ago. And today her mom said:

"The walls (of home) are aching for her!"

I know the home of her Mom's heart is definitely missing that woman/ child...
the beauty sometimes in disguise- a child of laughter and mischief,

but of no lasting peace.

Oh, Donya, we all ache for the young who cannot see a future or a hope!
Who cannot take the hard things of life that would make it worth the effort!
We pray your death was not in vain; may it touch many in ways we may never see,
but still will know with a knowing that no words can say!
Dearest, I barely knew you, but you had such purpose! I look around at many
children and know that some of your reason for "being" was probably so
that they might be!
Now that is an amazing destiny!
I thank God that I know He is a loving, gracious God who knows the hearts
of those who hurt and those who hurt for them!
Save a place for me and mom at the stables up there! I bet you are grooming
the Christ's stallion as I write this-
"..thy Kingdom come, thy will be done... On earth, as it is in Heaven!"

'Twas Resurrection SUNDAY!

I love that term: Resurrection Sunday. Seems we all need a
tad of Resurrection in the last few years, as witches have taken
over Halloween (it was THEIRS anyway :( -- As Easter
Bunnies have obscured (for many) the TRUE meaning of
"Easter.".
In chats, one often hears our EASTER is just "stolen from
the pagans!" Some truth there, but not enough to get your
drawers in a wad. Lighten UP!
Anyone who cares, has no problem with the name, Easter.
Still, RESURRECTION SUNDAY has that ring to it-
the kinda "says it alll" thing!
And don't we all need Resurrecting in one way or the other?!?
Just as Jesus the Christ was continuously doing.
"Thy Kingdom come, THY will be done... "
YES Lord, Even so, come quickly, Lord Jesus!
