Friends on the Forum, I thought many of you would be enlighted by some recent thoughts I have had due to my recent loss. Please understand I only post this to help others understand what one goes through when loosing their mate. I think this copy of an e-mail to a friend on the forum is beneficial. I pray with all my heart that my loss will be used for the glory of God and helpful to others. So........here goes..... Glad you liked it. Tell me, sounds like you are a single mom with one child? I am 59 with two sons at home from my marriage with Teena. Which is easier, girls or boys? Are you kidding, I partially raised two girls, they were adorable.....wonderful.......amazing........Boys? They are.......boys!!!!.........both so much like their mother and yet full of it just like their dad!!! They both were...(are)... exceptionally close to their mom. My youngest Daren just calls her mom;(my oldest son Derek most ofton referred to her as Maa'dray) notice I talk in the present not the past tense. For the most part, as a Christian, our loved ones who have graduated, are still in the present tense. My wife may have "gone home" but she is still their mom and my wife. You can't imagine how repeatedly I have to talk about her or deal with legal and business issues over and over. They say, "what was her name;" I reply, "her name.....is......Teena." She is not a...was...she is a...is." Now, she "was" here on earth but for all practical purposes, especially since now with God and an eternal "person" she is "away at the moment" but all of her will continue to be "eternally in the present tense." Please don't misunderstand as I am not angry or frustrated but Christians now with Christ are eternally present and not past..............wow.........good thought right? Blessing, Rick InGodITrust |

Cheri, Well Ok, "you take the heat!"..... The Name Above Every Name Jesus is the Light of men He’ll forgive you of your sin. God’s Word says He’s the Chosen One, On the cross His work was done. He’s Master, Teacher, and our Brother, What He’s done could be so by no other. He’s the Savior from our sin, By all of those who ask Him in. He’s our Shepherd and our Guide, If in our heart he does abide. He’s the Dayspring and Cleanser of sin, Wonderful Counselor has always been. As our Vine and Bridegroom Thee, It remains a mystery what we shall be. As God’s Beloved and Chosen One, The Anointed and only Son. As our Rock and purist Lamb, By His blood we’ll not be damned. Lord of Heaven, Son of God, Satan defeated by His rod. He’s the Savior of the world, From our life is Satan hurled. The Emmanuel and Holy One, Salvation only by the Son. We the branch and He the Vine, To love each other “is the sign.” Messiah the Prince and King of the Jews, Be it life and God, or the world we choose? The Bread of Life and our Governor be, His love and mercy all eternity to see. Lord of lords and God of gods, Let’s bow our heads in humble nods. By Rick InGodITrust |
