No Longer...

Hopefully, you read SONday's entry, here on Life with Lynnie (LwL).

If you did, then you will have found out about how I related to the song I shared, I Wanna Go Home... by Michael Buble.

However, I feel that I need to let you know that I hadn't heard that song in an extremely long time.

Why did it seem important to me?  Because, I as I woke up one day, the song was playing in my heart and mind.  I couldn't release it from me, until I wrote the blog entry.

When did this happen?  Just a few days before when my deceased husband... Gordon's birthday was going to take place.

In that era, as I was driving through the city I live in, I saw places where I could relate to Gordon.  Memories. And, historical places.

Did this make me feel good?

No.  It didn't.

I actually found myself crying.  Even as I was driving.  :'(

Please realize that I prayed.

I asked God to help me.  To take away my tears.

Did he?  Yes, and no.  Not totally at that time.

But, as I mentioned previously, as I woke up another day, that song was on my heart and mind, playing inside me.

I felt like it made me think of how God helped Gordon.  And, would help me.

Just as we read, in Revelation 21:4, "And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.".

Amen!  God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Of course, this only applies to those people who have gained salvation, by trusting in/believing upon our Lord, Jesus Christ.  Just as both Gordon and I had done.

Hopefully, you understand that when I woke up that morning and the music was inside of me, I realized that God was speaking to me.

He was reminding me that Gordon was no longer suffering.

Plus, He reminded me that when my life ends here on earth, I will no longer suffer, either.

For this I was thankful.  And, always will be.

Thank You, Lord!


Until next time...
