Rest in Peace Grandpa!

I would just like to make a quick post to thank everybody who had prayed for my grandfather. It may be hard for everybody but I still thank God for His ways. I believe that it is better to die due to sickness than to have a sudden death. I know He is with our Father right now for I believe that he already received Jesus and forgiveness took place before he expired.

I had so many great memories with my grandfather and I believe that having those days with him is a blessing. I could say that I am lucky because I was able to spend time with him while he was still strong. He is also the only grandparent whom I have seen and had memories because my other grandparents died when I was still young. Moreover, he is not just the father of my mom but he is also a good friend of my dad.

I just wish I had the chance to take care of him while he was still in the hospital. I wish we can go home to the Philippines so we could say goodbye to him. I wish he knew that I love him.

May you rest in peace lolo...I know you could hear what's inside my heart.

Paige, I'm sorry for your loss. Without a doubt, your grandfather knew you loved him! The memories with him will always be with you.

God bless and may His comfort and grace abide in and with you and your family in this difficult time.

Ouch. That sure sets YOU apart. I'll see YOU in the Great Beyond soon (in God's eyes). Be at peace, girl. God bless.

Hi Paige, I just left Valerie's blog and I want you to know that I am praying about the problem with your green card. Praying that God's will be done in your life and your family's life. May He raise you up to be a mighty woman of God!

A WEEKEND FULL I WISH YOU

A weekend full of flowers bright,
of butterflies and marvels light,
of breeze by a caressing sun
I wish you. May you see the Son!

So sorry to read about your grandfather, but for us who know the Lord, death is just the passing from one realm to a far better one where there is no more pain or tears. And even though it is a sad time for those left behind, we can rejoice that we will be reunited with our loved one some day.

I found your blog through Valerie Lynn, and just stopped by to let you know that I am praying for the Lord to intercede in your green card situation so everything gets resolved on time.

You have some awesome testimonies on your blog,
