Rev 21:4
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
He needed to stop at a cemetery as we were journeying back from Boston. I knew where we were going although he couldn’t verbalize it. We were two old men standing there before the tombstone of his only son whose name was emblazoned there. I couldn’t say anything that would be appropriate because I couldn’t feel the pain the way he did.
I never thought the day would come when the same thing would happen to me. Now I reflect back on that scene. He just wanted me there and I didn’t have to say anything. There are times when we don’t have to say anything, just be there.
A special thanks to the many that stood there with us when we were in that kind of pain. Their presence meant so much then, and it still lingers to the present. Thank you.
There’ll be no sorrows there
No more burdens to bear
No more sickness and no more pain
No more parting over there
But forever I will be
With the one who died for me
What a day, glorious day that will be
Think about it.
