Honored Man of God
to the MAN who left me for Jesus!
After 38 years of together, we now go our separate ways.
I said to my dad, " I don't know how to be single!"
According to the Word of God, separation from a spouce, except for adultery, is "til death due we part!"
Now I find myself in a place I thought would not be until we were BOTH well aged, like wine.
From the first meeting in the park, adventures on the road to visit New York in-laws, desert wanderings both real and spiritual, renewed commitments to God and each other, not giving up even in the tough times (and there were many), nurturing and raising our kids with Gods blessings and help (we did the best we could), rides often on the many horses we owned, building up our home and lives together in the various stages of our lives, the 5 blessed last years that not only threatened to tear us apart but also brought us closer in avery different way, to now reflecting on all those years together and where we both are right now.
You see I know you are not GONE as some know 'gone'. You just left me and planet earth for a better deal. Life Eternal "NOW" with the Lord Jesus Christ.
Soon and some day I will, too, be honored with you in that place in Glory where there is no death or dying or crying or sorrow. "For we sorrow not as one who has no hope . . ."
The Lord Jesus Christ IS our ONLY HOPE!
"What dead people need most is Life Eternal!
The Only cure for death is ressurrection!
So, My Love until the day I see you again in Glory after I leave the Planet. Or the Lord returns with his white horse riders(of which I know you will be one of them) ~ I will go on in this world and this life and complete the task(s) God has for me to do ~
and I will remember the time we had together~
~ as Special and Unique! One-of-a-kind!
Your One time lover anf friend~
