Be Thou At Peace

Posted by Maria Amrhein on July 23, 2011:

There are no words to ease the sorrow you carry today; only many, many prayers sent out for a mother, father, family and friends who are greiving to the depths of their souls. May God's love surround you with every step of this sorrowful journey. Coming Home to Me We do not know the time nor place when our Lord's Almighty Plan, Says, "It's time to come back home my child into My loving hands. You've touched the lives of many and completed all your tasks; A job well done" God proudly says, "much more than I had asked. Today, you enter in My Kingdom of peace and endless joy; Today, you'll feel the purest love which evil can't destroy. Yet, also on this day my child, my eyes are filled with tears; For those that loved you down on earth, have deep sorrow yet to bear. Their hearts are breaking right in two; since I have called you home; I know the pain they carry; I too have grieved a Son. But, one day they will understand the Glory of My Plan; When I welcome them, just like you, into My loving hands. Until then My angel, as well as you will be, Their loving guides from heaven, 'til they to come home to Me." Written by a mother of a cadet from class 2014 on 7/23/2011 in memory of Cadet Jacob D.
