I have fought the good fight, finished the race, kept the faith.
Now...John’s journey is “Over”
Gratefully...John’s toiling has “Ended”
Joyfully...John is “Finally Home”
Jesus said...I am the resurrection and the life.
He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.
John 11:25
~:~
In the glow of early morning,
In the solemn hush of night;
Oft methinks I hear His footsteps,
Stealing down the path of time;
Long I’ve waited, blest Redeemer,
For that upward call of Thine.
~:~
“Thou hast formed us for Thyself,
and our hearts are restless till they find rest in Thee.”
~ St. Augustine ~
Precious in the sight of the LORD is the death of His saints.
Psalm 116:15
Life
Life is but a stopping place,
A pause in what's to be,
A resting place along the road,
to sweet eternity.
We all have different journeys,
Different paths along the way,
We all were meant to learn some things,
but never meant to stay…
Our destination is a place,
Far greater than we know.
For some the journey's quicker,
For some the journey's slow.
And when the journey finally ends,
We'll claim a great reward,
And find an everlasting peace,
Together with the Lord.
