Lord, I need you.


On December 22, 2013,
The Lord, in His infinite wisdom, took home to himself in glory,
My sweet baby sister.
Sweet Daphne Noelle never had to feel the cold. 
She never had to hurt.
She never had to cry.
She never had to hunger.
She  is  free.
She is safe and sound in Jesus' arms.
Free from this world,
it's sadness,
it's hurt.
Free to praise her Savior,
forever
and ever.

It hurts so much.
For us.
We long so deeply to hold her.
To cuddle her.
To watch her learn and grow.
To see all that she would be.

But what a comfort it is;
A ribbon of hope 
amidst the sadness and pain,
That we will see her again.
One day we will see her and praise our heavenly Father 
together
forever.

"God is our refuge and strength,
    an ever-present help in trouble.
 Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way
    and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea,
 though its waters roar and foam
    and the mountains quake with their surging.
 There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God,
    the holy place where the Most High dwells.
 God is within her, she will not fall;
    God will help her at break of day.
 Nations are in uproar, kingdoms fall;
    he lifts his voice, the earth melts.
 
The Lord Almighty is with us;

  the God of Jacob is our fortress



Come and see what the Lord has done

the desolations he has brought on the earth

He makes wars cease

 to the ends of the earth.

He breaks the bow and shatters the spear;

 he burns the shields with fire.

He says, “Be still, and know that I am God;

 I will be exalted among the nations,

I will be exalted in the earth.”

The Lord Almighty is with us;

the God of Jacob is our fortress."

~ Psalm 46 ~
