Today is the 3rd year anniversary that my beloved Tom left this temporary life here on earth to his final destination called Heaven. I know that he is rejoicing and in total amazement of his surroundings today. I believe with great certainty that if you believe in the GOD of the Bible and all His promises, when you leave your human body, your spirit IMMEDIATELY goes to the presence of The LORD. Contrary to popular belief, I will not say that he is an angel because the truth is, that he is not. GOD created angels long before he created mankind and they are actually inferior to humans. You see, GOD created us (humans) in HIS own image. How awesome is that!!!!! Humans do not become angels once they pass into eternity, Scripture tells us otherwise. We remain as we are, (only better!!) That is soooo comforting to know, because that means, that when I depart this world and enter HIS Kingdom, I will immediately recognize Tom. There will be NO more suffering, No more tears, No more pain!!! Forgive me if I sound a little exited, but the more I learn about what its written in the Holy Scripture, the more excited I become about spending eternity in HIS Holy Presence. The truth is that we really do NOT die, GOD made us for eternity!!! Jesus conquered death on the cross, so we, (His believers) no longer fear a physical death, but have JOY in our hearts as we look ahead to a future next to HIM and all his splendor, which HE will gladly share with us when HE decides to call us HOME. I KNOW that I will see my husband again because I BELIEVE GOD and I believe in the resurrection!!! I suffer now, but my suffering is temporary, I suffer because I miss seeing his face, I miss hearing his voice. I miss him in every sense of the word and its difficult to live without him. I suffer when I think of what an awesome grandpa he was and how his grandkids and all the new addition to our family will miss out on knowing him. YES, my heart is broken into a million little pieces as are my kids, and all his family, (specially his mom) and friends that adored him. I am not denying that the void and emptiness that Toms departure has left in all of us is immeasurable, but I have HOPE and I have FAITH and I have soooo much LOVE that sustains me daily. I am BLESSED beyond words. GOD has been gracious and faithful to carry me on a daily basis. It is in HIM that I am strong, It is in HIM that I feel joy and it is in HIM ALONE that my eyes are fixed. I REST in HIM, because HE is almighty GOD and I am NOT. HIS ways are not our ways, HIS purposes and plans far exceed anything that I can imagine and they are perfect, (even when my human mind does not understand) HE is still PERFECT and AWESOME and above all HE IS GOOD all the time!!!! I have managed to survive 3 whole years without Tom, but I am 3 whole years closer to spending an eternity with him in Heaven. I have learned to take one day at a time and enjoy each one like it was my last one. WHY? because life is uncertain, and the truth is that any of us could be called HOME at any given moment or day. I have lived such a day with the sudden departure of my beloved Tom. (Tom was completely healthy and unaware of his fate on that day, as were all of us ) So please, go and bless, and serve, and love one another like Christ loved us. Remember the two greatest commandments which Jesus, our Savior summed up for us: LOVE The Lord your GOD with all your heart, mind and soul and love one another as HE loved us. HIS love was a PERFECT love, a love beyond anything the world could have imagine. A LOVE that cost HIM everything on that cross, so that all that BELIEVE in HIM will not perish but have eternal life. My HOPE comes from The LORD!!!! The more I read and study Gods Word, the more I realize how little I really know about HIS-story and how much I DESIRE to learn about what has been written in the oldest book in the history of the world, The Holy Bible. (I have So much to learn, so little time) Just because I am broken, doesnt mean I am hopeless. My HOPE is in The LORD!!!! GOD bless you and please keep us in your prayers.
