Patterns and sizes

Custom cut for you

Fine tuning focus

To Jesus’ view

Time turning pages

Faster is seems

Hope opening hearts

LIGHT directs dreams

Each day’s occasion

Your way-marked life

His footsteps following

Now ceasing self-strife

You yielded your heart

To Him years ago

His promised plan perfect

Your person to grow

Soon you meet Him

One awesome day

Touching Jesus’ face

Hearing Him say

Daughter you did well

Through struggles and time

Well done I say

You’re eternity’s Mine.

1Thess 4:13-18

But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus.
15 For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. 16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. 17 Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. 18 Therefore comfort one another with these words. (NKJV)
