 SHOW ME ALL THAT I AM; AND ALL THAT I COULD BE 

SHOW ME THE STAIRWAY; I HAVE TO CLIMB LORD

PLEASE TEACH ME TO TAKE...ONE DAY AT A TIME

Don't think of her as gone away

Her journey's just begun

Life holds so many facets

The earth is only one

Just think of her as resting

from the sorrows and the tears

In a place of warmth ad comfort

Where there are no days or years

think how she must be wishing

that we could know today

how nothing but our sorrow

can really pass away

And think of her as living

In the hearts of those she touched

For nothing loved is ever lost

And she was loved so much

-E Brenneman

God saw you were getting tired and a cure was not to be .

So he put his arms around you and whispered "Come to Me".

With tearful eyes we watched you suffer and saw you fade away.

Although we loved you dearly, we could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating, hard working hands were laid to rest.

God broke our hearts to prove to us, He only takes the best.

Prayer of St. Francis of Assissi (The Patron Saint of Peace)

Lord, make me a chanel of your peace. Where there's despair in life, let me bring hope. Where there is darknes, only light. And where there is doubt, true faith in you. Lord, make me a chanel of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me bring your love. Where there is injury, your pardon Lord. And where there is sadness, ever joy.

 Oh Master, grant that I may never seek, so much to be consoled, as to console, to be understood as to understand, to be loved, as to love with all my soul. Lord, Make me a chanel of your peace. It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

In giving of ourselves that we receive, and in dying, that we are born to eternal life.

The End

 

I wanted to pass this prayer along to you, because viewing your web page reminded me of this,

my favorite prayer, for two reasons. First, when looking over your web page I realized how

much effort you have poured into it and how much it can, is, and will work to help others, as

well as helping yourself deal with your loss. Thus it reminded me of the irony in the prayer, it is

"in giving of ourselves that we receive." And also because of the very sad irony of life that the

prayer, and your web page are really all about. That is, without death and the great sadness,

pain and fear it brings down on all of us, there can be no eternal life; "in dying, we are born to

eternal life."

Thanks L.J.
