All week long, the same hymn you shared here has been on my heart. I looked up the words earlier this week, and actually posted a You Tube video of Rich Mullins singing part of this hymn to my facebook page. I had to smile when I landed on your page tonight and saw the hymn here again. God is so good to me.<br /><br />I am thankful that I know that He has prepared a place for me. It comforts me and gives me courage on tough days. May God continue to wrap Himself around you. Big Hugs<br /><br />Thanks for linking up at Thought-Provoking Thursday! :)Lyli @3-D Lessons for Lifehttp://3dlessons4life.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-75993795648208962812014-01-30T21:52:37.182-08:002014-01-30T21:52:37.182-08:00This is a beautiful post.

So true, this is not our final home and I also related to your feelings of "I have to walk this alone." That was me in 2012 when my mom went to her final home. Take your time with it and I'm so glad that you feel some comfort.

Death is so final, until we remember as you sid so well, that they are HOME. It stamps on our hearts again that this is not our home. I love your bag with the label Sharon. I have a rubber ball that we gave dad to squeeze in the hospital after his stroke, he did, and it probably helped him as he was a baseball player. Even though he died 2 days later, and I kept the ball, my heart is glad as I know yours is, that they are HOME!<br /><br />Love you sister, praying for comfort each day.http://bitsandpieces-sonja.blogspot.com/https://www.blogger.com/profile/09254831447887637714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-31255343428591811182014-01-28T18:45:32.491-08:002014-01-28T18:45:32.491-08:00And, yes, one of the main things I focus on is tha...And, yes, one of the main things I focus on is that we live here for decades ... not always seeing family and friends or going where we want to to see them [in my case, Uganda], but have said to some that decades are part of reality, but eternity IS reality. I'll see my parents, so many friends, so many in history or Biblical history that have grabbed me long ago, for instance, Jeremiah and Nehemiah and so many others. That's what/all I can count on. Ain't good enough here; WILL be there. VERY GOOD! And you'll truly have a wonderful time with you Dad. That's all we can count on.caryjohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01488368153291827383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-48014612879151795332014-01-28T17:06:39.077-08:002014-01-28T17:06:39.077-08:00AMEN!!!

I guess that's a little tiny bit how you feel. I love that you put the sticker on the bag, and I hope that you keep that beautiful bag as a reminder forever. We are all just visitors, and on the other side of the Jordan, our real home waits, complete with Dads who are already there and, if we can be so bold as to say... even better... a Heavenly Father who has been waiting since He formed us in the womb to get us there. <br /><br />I loved what you said about the cackle, and I LOVED how you followed it with the thought of the empty tomb. <br /><br />I will continue to lift you, Sharon. People with big hearts feel the hurt of them so deeply. You are such a person. <br /><br />(And I'm sorry to be so late. I feel the need to tell you that because I care about you and what you're going through. We're anticipating a monster storm here and I'm a little scattered trying to get ready. It has hindered my computer time.)<br /><br />I hope they are all crying wolf...Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05671482394424988047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-63022113223058043162014-01-28T10:36:21.342-08:002014-01-28T10:36:21.342-08:00Oh my sweet friend...I just found out about your D...Oh my sweet friend...I just found out about your Dad when I saw your comment on Lidia's blog!<br />I am so sorry for your sorrow!<br />I read this and cried, but had to wipe away the tears when I realized that your Dad is home!<br />I can see your heavenly Father comparing notes with your earthly father right now...They are proud of their little girl!<br />You are such a good daughter.<br />...And a good friend...I Love you~ LisaNever Forsakenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04537083795724752514noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3168946904182381428.post-13578816211458231422014-01-28T03:50:18.878-08:002014-01-28T03:50:18.878-08:00Beautiful post.
