Oh when I get where I'm going.....

We bury my father tommorrow. At 1 pm. His physical state will be laid beside my mother. My mother has been gone for 10 years. My father has missed her terribly and now he no longer will. I believe in heaven. I believe in complete happiness, joy, peace, and companionship. I have no reason to doubt what I have held in my heart for all these years. I have watched death in many different people. I've seen the suffering, bitterness, regret, anger, hate, and lack of understanding. I've seen the release, sweetness, joy, completeness and peace. My father left this world to be reunited with his wife, friends, fellow ministers and his family. We will gather our families and friends tommorrow and fellowship in the love given by knowing Jesus as our Saviour. It is the love that surrounds us when weak. It is the love that covers our scrapes and hurts. It is the love that was given so completely, we now can experience the joy in forgiveness and eternal peace. We will cry, laugh, tell funny stories and believe you me there are some funny stories. Our family will be united for a time of fellowship. I am so blessed to be the youngest of four. I am so blessed to have had parents who loved Jesus. I am so blessed to call my brothers and sisters my friends. I am so blessed to be, simply to be, a part, in this temporary dwelling place. Cause when I get where I'm going, I want to be there.
