Beloved mother of mine

-
You passed away so suddenly
Without any warning or sign
What am I to do
Without your motherly love?
You were always just there
Patiently waiting for a phone call
or me stopping to say hi  
Oh why have I taken u 4 granted!

I have known you all my life
Have loved you for as long as I can remember
And hoped you would live forever
O how I wish with my whole heart
You didn’t die!

We have been through so many heartaches
You were my refuge during my younger years
You soothed my scary heart through raging storms
And answered the many questions I always seemed 2 have

You held my hand when I gave birth
To bravely go through the unknown
You taught me how to dance, love and care
how to be fare

Together we have grieved over loved ones’ graves
Encouraging each other 2 b brave
You stood beside me through every wrong decision I have ever made
And not once said “but I have told you so”

You have taught me right from wrong
You showed me how to burb a baby, change a nappy and be strong
You told me how to behave like a lady, be a mother and work with money
But mom you never told me what to do when you die!
You never told me what it would feel like not having you around!
You never told me that my heart would break!
You never told me that my world would fall apart!
You never taught me how to live without you!
You never showed me the way!
Mom you never prepared me for this!

Oh mother, my beloved Mother!
I miss you so very-very much
Mom, what am I going to do without you?

Bible - Truths

And we have known and believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him. In this is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, that as He is, so also we are in this world. There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He who fears has not been perfected in love. 1John 4:16-18 The Bible says that God is LOVE... And in the same verse it says that there is no fear in love. They are opposites in the Kingdom. If we are operating in fear we are working for the enemy even if we think we are doing something 'righteous'. This would count especially in cases where we care too much what others think of us - if we are fearing people more than we fear God we are people pleasing. Having respect and love for another person is NOT the same as people pleasing and sometimes when we are immature in love we can mistake the two. We need to learn how to have respect and lov...

The Dogwood Tree

Here is a small reminder of what happened on Good Friday long ago. The dogwood was the tree chosen to construct the Cross that would be used to take the body of Jesus. Even though His body may have been taken from this earth, His spirit remains and every spring we are blessed with a reminder of the events that unfolded on that fateful weekend. The blooms often appear in the shape of a Cross with holes in the tips of the pedals signifying the nails that were driven into the Cross. If you look closely at these holes you can notice a faint red stain representing the Blood. In the center you will find a green bloom symbolizing the crown of thorns placed on the head of Jesus. The dogwood is more than a tree…it is a representation of life. With every spring we are reminded of what God did for us and given the chance to be reborn and start a new life as “children of God”. (John 3:1)
