Peete's Landing: I WILL PRAISE YOU IN THE STORM

I WILL PRAISE YOU IN THE STORM

ABSENT FROM THE BODY....PRESENT WITH THE LORD... "I was sure by now that You would have reached down and wiped our tears away, stepped in and saved the day. But once again, I say, Amen and it's still raining As the thunder rolls I barely hear Your whisper through the rain, "I'm with you". And as Your mercy falls I raise my hands and praise the God who gives and takes away. And I'll praise You in this storm and I will lift my hands. For You are who You are no matter where I am. And every tear I've cried You hold in Your hand, You never left my side and though my heart is torn I will praise You in this storm."

Time Does Not Bring Relief.. Edna St. Vincent Millay

Time does not bing relief;
you all have lied who told me
time would ease me of my pain!
I miss him in the weeping of the rain;
I want him at the shrinking of the tide;
The old Snows melt from every mountain-side, and last years leaves are smoke in every lane;
But last year's loving remain's heaped on my heart,
and my old thoughts abide.

There are a hundred places where I fear to go
- so with his memory they brim.
and entering with relief some quiet place
where never fell his foot or shone his face

I say, "There is no memory of him here!"
And so stand stricken, still remembering him.

I Died A Death
