Goodbye
I believe that now, most of her children and grandchildren are Christians as a result of her prayers. Now we would all sit down at the dinner table and my uncle or my dad would pray. No longer laughing at her faith. But thankful. Thankful for such a legacy. Thankful for the heart that she has passed on.
I have written a poem for her. Truly, this is her life...
Looking back through the years
Joy and laughter cause my eyes to tear
Family members I hold so dear
Blessings from God through the years
A husband who loves me ever so dear
Nine children gives meaning to life here
Grand and great children adding joy through the years
A life so fulfilled, my journey does not end here
Truly her journey does not end here. It ended on earth but it has just begun in Heaven

Truth
The Teacher said to the visitor, "If what you seek is Truth, there is one thing you must have above all else."
"I know," the visitor said. "To find Truth I must have an overwhelming passion for it."
"No," the Teacher said. "In order to find Truth, you must have an unremitting readiness to admit you may be wrong."
"Christian"
Groomed to be a Christian
Follow without questions
Meetings by the dozens
Just imitate, follow the pattern
Have you found your ministry?
Understand your calling perfectly?
One of the 5 fold you should be
A leader you should strife to be
Talk right, walk right
Act right and you will be alright
Do not worry about spiritual insights
For years we have been doing alright.
