From my arms to God's heart

                             on eagles wing

                                Beloved Spirit gets her wings

 

                                     

                                              

                      This is the beginning of Spirit's journey to 

                      Rainbow Bridge.

                August 8th, 2000-June 20th, 2005

                                                         

                I knew you, I loved you, before you were born

                                               

I cannot begin the story yet, tears are still too close, but my dear friends have provided me with such comfort & awesome pix I wanted to at least display them.

                                             

                     Few words of farewell were spoken, no time for long 'goodbyes',

                      You were gone before we knew it and only God knows why.

                                     

                In Quiet Solitude

                 Healing one's inner self, offers a refreshing hope.

                 There is a place of peace

                In the quiet solitude of your soul.

               A place where comfort breaths life

              Into the tearful heart

 

               In the midst of of silent sorrow,

               A soothing hallowed light

              Will gently caress you.

               Leaving a renewed strength

              & inner courage to face what lies ahead.

 

              In the wings of your journey

              Take that solo flight.

               Reach a higher plateau of fulfillment

                And stand by the pillars of your beliefs. 

             Release your soul to freedom

            And ascend to His light.   

                         {from a card given in Spirit's memory by someone very dear to me}

                                     

               'If you stand before the  pow'r of hell

              & death is at your  side,

               Know that I am with you through it all

               Be Not afraid, I go before you always,

               Come follow me, and I will give you rest'.

 

                                 from hymn by Bob Dufford

                                                         

 

                                            "Blessings in Disguise"

                                                     God sends His "little angels"
                                                   In many forms and guises,
                                                   They come as lovely miracles
                                                 That God alone devises,

                                                       For He does nothing without purpose,
                                                  Everything's a perfect plan
                                                    To fulfill in bounteous measure
                                                All He ever promised man.

                                                For every "little angel"
                                                 With a body bent and broken,
                                              Or little words unspoken,

                                            Is just God's way of trying
                                           To reach and touch the hand
                                         Of all who do not know Him
                                     And cannot understand

                                          That often through an angel
                                          Whose "wings will never fly"
                                        The Lord is pointing out a way
                                     To His eternal sky

                                         Where there will be no more handicaps
                                       Of body, soul, or mind
                                      And where all the limitations
                                     Will be dropped and left behind.

                                    So accept these "little angels"
                               As gifts from God above
                                 And thank Him for this lesson
                              In endless faith and love.

                                     NOBODY KNOWS
                                  By: The Tony Rich

                                       I pretend I'm glad you went away
                                     These four walls closin' more every day
                                      And I'm dying inside
                                    And nobody knows it but me
                                   Like a clown I put on a show
                                The pain is real even if nobody knows
                              And I'm crying inside
                           And nobody knows it but me

                                Why didn't I say
                               The things I needed to say
                             How could I let my angel get away
                             Now my world is just a tumblin' down
                           I can say it so clearly
                          But you're nowhere around

                                    The nights are lonely, the days are so sad
                                     And I just keep thinkin' about
                                The love that we had
                              And I'm missin' you
                              And nobody knows it but me

                                Tomorrow mornin' I'm hitting the dusty road
                              Gonna find you wherever, ever you might go
                           I'm gonna unload my heart and hope you come back to me
                             Said when the nights are lonely...

                               The nights are lonely, the days are so sad
                            And I just keep thinkin' about
                          The love that we had
                       And I'm missin' you
                        And nobody knows it but me

 

 

                                              

A Pet's Prayer
My people are so precious, Lord;
I know You think so, too...
And I believe You put me here
To love them just for You!

They take such gentle care of me
And have such tender hearts...
Please use me, Lord, to comfort them
Whenever teardrops start.

They face a lot of battles
As they live & work each day...
They need me, Lord,
To make them smile
And show them how to play!

The world is full of people,
But sometimes real friends are few...
Please let my love & loyalty
Remind them, Lord, of you.

And when my final moment comes,
Lord, tell them as we part...
I was a made-to-order gift
From Your great, loving heart!
Hope Herrington  Kolb.
