HIS NAME IS DAVID

How dare life go on
When we feel such pain
Life should stand still
That's how we feel
We go through our days
Sometimes we forget
When dawning appears
We feel as if we're drowning
In a storm of tears
Such brokenness, inside of us
Is he really gone
Because we can't see
Because we can't touch
We can see you standing tall
In full cowboy gear
Then again, come the tears
Our pain is a little
Different from others
You left Mike and I
Your sister and brother
If we could, we would ask
Is He beautiful
Tell us of His love so sweet
Tell us how you felt
When you cast your crown
At His feet
Tell us when
We can see you again
Answers to be found
When we get to heaven
Now you have a brand new name
In your heavenly haven
But to Mike and I
His name is David

Dear Judy, when my husband died at 41 I was lost too.
I had taken care of him 24/7 for the last two years of his life, and all that I kept asking God was to make sure he was alright........
How ironic was that?
Heaven is, I am sure, a wonderful, wonderful place.
My husband is probably drinking tea with David as I write...looking down on us and wishing that we knew how Divine their lives are now -walking with Jesus.
God Bless you my sister, David is alive, well, and incredibly happy.....you will see! Elizabeth

Incredible - I am touched by your loss... the only thing I think is that rather than I, it should be me (if you say Mike and me you can take out the Mike and see what stands alone - I doesn't seem to but me would. Some of the best I have read at FaithWriters yet!

Oh Judy! This takes me back to how I felt when my brother left his earthly home for his eternal home with Jesus.We never quit missing them but we have the joy of knowing that we will see them again soon! They are very busy in heaven because there is much to do in preparation of the GREAT HOMECOMING OF ALL THE SAINTS! Just think about David being in the presence of Jesus and seeing the other DAVID for the first time. Oh! The stories are too marvelous to tell!! I'm so glad you wrote this piece. You are in my prayers and on Prayer Mountain along with your family also. It's going to be okay!!!! Love you my sister in Jesus!!!..Anita

So sorry, Judy that you lost your brother. I know you are happy for him, that he is now out of pain and with the Lord, but you will miss him. Grieving for a loved one is a painful, but necessary part of life...One day you will meet him again. Only God knows that day...God bless you...Helen
