Gone forever.....
A friend of mine died today. *sigh* She has been in hospital for a few weeks and they just put her into pallative care last week. She had cancer for years but never knew till last month. *sigh* She was 72 years old. She lived in my building two floors below me. It will never be the same coming home to my place knowing she's not at hers. *sigh* I will miss her! *sigh* Thank you for all you've done for me over the years Sis Jacky She was my friend and my sister in the Lord She will be missed! Today Sis.Jacky went to heaven to be with the Lord And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God. 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. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write; for these words are true and faithful. And he said unto me, It is done; I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall by my son. Revelation 21:1-7 KJV

He leads me beside still waters. [1]

The New Heaven and the New Earth
21:1 Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. 2 And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, Behold, the dwelling place [1] of God is with man. He will dwell with them, and they will be his people, [2] and God himself will be with them as their God. [3] 4 He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.
5 And he who was seated on the throne said, Behold, I am making all things new. Also he said, Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true. 6 And he said to me, It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To the thirsty I will give from the spring of the water of life without payment. 7 The one who conquers will have this heritage, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless, the detestable, as for murderers, the sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars, their portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death
Sorry for your loss Ramona!!! You know where she is now, and you\'ll see her again someday!!
Yes, that\'s so sad and she will surely be missed. But you\'ve captured the essence of the hope we have as believers. May those words comfort you in the coming days. I know they do me :) Love in Him, Rhonda
I am so sorry to hear that your dear friend has died. My heart and prayers go out to you.
