When thou passest through the waters, I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when thou walkest through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the flame kindle upon thee. Isaiah 43:2 Rest In Peace My Son God saw how very tired he was, He felt his aching heart, He knew his troubled mind; So God wrapped His arms around him and whispered, “I will give you rest”. With tearful eyes, I watched him, With hands folded, I prayed for him. My heart ached as I felt his pain, My mind weary as I shared his sorrows. I tried to calm his anxious heart, I tried to ease his troubled mind. All I could do was pray for him, To love him completely, To hold him close. A precious heart stopped beating, A weary mind laid to rest, A troubled soul now at peace. Although I may never understand how, I do understand why! My son you are at rest now, Soon we shall meet again, God promised us so! © Sindy Vorderstrasse August 2006
