Hiya,

Mama had me re-type something she found in the newspaper, so I figured since I already had it in the computer, might as well put it here.

I was not alone, though. God was certainly with me and empowered me with strength and courage as I released my mom into his loving hands.

For all of you, who, like me, have recently lost a loved one or may be experiencing your first Christmas without your loved one, I want to share the following poem that was shared with me last year just before Christmas.
I hope it touches your heart in the same special way it did mine, and will fill you with an inner peace as you face your first year without your loved one.
------------------------------------------
MY FIRST CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
“I see countless Christmas trees around the world below
With tingling lights like Heaven’s stars, reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away that tear,
For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I hear the many Christmas songs that people hold so dear,
But the sounds of music can’t compare with the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you the joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description to hear the angels sing.

I know how much you miss me. I see the pain inside your heart,
But I am not so far away. We really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me dear ones, you know I hold you dear,
And be glad I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

I send you each a special gift from my heavenly home above
I send you each a memory of my undying love
After all, love is a gift more precious than pure gold
It was always most important in the stories Jesus told.

Please love each other just as the Father said to do,
For I can’t count the blessings or love He has for you.
So have a Merry Christmas and wipe away that tear.
Remember: I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.”
