TIME SLIPS AWAY
TIME SLIPS AWAY
Time slips away when we are trapped in our own lives. Our jobs, our homes, our kids. Then you look around you and open up your eyes to the truth that is set before you.
Another death this year of a very close relative. Two in one year, grieving over the time that slips by so fast that you fill in the void of one death by spending more time with someone else. Then that person passes and you are left with another void to big to fill the hole in your heart.
Tears of memories flood your head of those loved ones that has slipped away to that great heaven in the sky. They are at peace now no more sorrow or pain for them, they are in the arms of Jesus who suffered on the cross so they can have eternity with him.
Now how can I come to terms with my loss so great, I am swimming in a flood of tears. Not able to find that peace my love ones now have. I look up to the sky and tears steaming down my face, I fill the sun’s warmth on my face, which dries up the tears and looking all around.
I see the love of God all though the earth, the warmth of the Sun, the flowers drying up, the leaves on the trees falling, knowing this is the season of fall. Just as God reminds me, there is a time forever season. A time to live and a time to die.
With the love of God filling that empty hole, it was overflowing joy springing up inside of me, knowing my love ones are not lost but they are with Jesus. When my time comes I will too will slip away to be with them.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. I know I must go on living my life and as time slips away, those tears will be a faded memory as I move on in time.
For it is my time to live,
NOT MY TIME TO SLIP AWAY
Psalm 34:18

God had given this to me on November 10, 2009
This poem is not just for my Dad and my Uncle that I had lost this year, for they are not lost they are in heaven with Jesus and when my time slips away I too will be with them.
This poem is in memory of all my loved ones that has slipped away to be with the Lord. For not a day goes by that I do not think of them and the wonderful memories I have them.
I had another friend call me this morning and wanted me to go with her to a Women’s Christian meeting, she was buying lunch, my heart was not into go out and being around people, I just could not stop the tears.
Thanks to a wonderful friend who emailed me, for her concern of my loss of my uncle. I had been at loss all week after his funeral. I just could not stop crying and get on with my life.
These verses struck out to me that she sent to me in her email.
The LORD is close to the brokenhearted
and saves those who are crushed in spirit. Psalm 34:18
When you pass through the waters,
I will be with you;
and when you pass through the rivers,
they will not sweep over you.
When you walk through the fire,
you will not be burned;
the flames will not set you ablaze.. Isaiah 43:2 (This is my personal verse)
This is the day the Lord has made, I WILL (a choice) rejoice and be glad in it!!!
