When death approaches our front door, it seems a dreadful thought, But just imagine what’s in store. With angels we’ll be brought. The gates of heaven opened wide, the throne of God we’ll see. Our Savior at the Father’s side, a room for you and me.
Our bonds are freed – the chains are gone. The ransom has been paid. No hopeless tears – a brand new dawn – no more to be dismayed. A paradise awaits us beyond this murky strife. No pain or sorrow will there be – a perfect holy life.
So set your eyes on Jesus. Don’t ever let Him go. He is our own Redeemer. His blood for us did flow. I love you, dear Lord, Jesus. my chains have been set free, and when death comes I’ll tremble not, for you have died for me.
As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension.
I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog.
I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ.
My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.
My father entered heaven a few months ago. I envision him in heaven with my mom and other family members that were waiting for him. It gives me such peace to know he is free from sickness, pain, and troubles, and is with Jesus in paradise; a place where Jesus said we can not even imagine what good things we have waiting for us. This touched me deeply this morning. Thank you for sharing.
I’m so glad my words touched your heart today. I have the same thoughts about those who have gone before me into heaven. Every day I long for that reunion which awaits. As I grow older, the thoughts grow ever more appealing.

I'm a retiree in his seventies. That may not be significant to many, since there is a bunch of us Baby Boomers around. However, in the year 2,000, when I received a diagnosis of Multiple Myeloma, I expected to be dead in three to five years.
