~Homesick~

This is a sketch done of Kraig by one of my daughter's friends, Jan. She gave it to Lisa at the funeral. I love how she really didn't know him...but captured him so perfectly. I just wanted to say hello and let everyone know that I miss you all but don't know when I'll return to flickr. I'm trying to be strong...my heart is broken...whatever I'll do without my best friend is beyond my comprehension right now. I want to thank everyone for all of your heartfelt words...prayers for me ..Kraig...and the family..emails...and cards that I've received.(you know who you are). You have all been amazing~ This is such a difficult time, and it is soo appreciated. I will answer each and every email. Please just give me a little time. I love you all...and am sending BIG hugs and many thanks from me..and the family. God bless.

 

HOMESICK...

You're in a better place, I've heard a thousand times

And at least a thousand times I've rejoiced for you

But the reason why I'm broken, the reason why I cry

Is how long must I wait to be with you

 

I close my eyes and I see your face

If home's where my heart is then I'm out of place

Lord, won't you give me strength to make it through somehow

I've never been more homesick than now

 

Help me Lord cause I don't understand your ways

The reason why I wonder if I'll ever know

But, even if you showed me, the hurt would be the same

Cause I'm still here so far away from home

 

In Christ, there are no goodbyes

And in Christ, there is no end

So I'll hold onto Jesus with all that I have

To see you again

 

Mercy Me
