A LETTER
FROM HEAVEN
To my dearest
family, some
things I'd like
to say.
But first of
all to let you know that
I arrived O.K.
I'm writing this
from Heaven
where I dwell
with God above
where there's
no more sadness.
There is just
eternal love.
Please do not
be unhappy just
because I'm out
of sight.
Remember that
I'm with you
every morning,
noon, and night.
That night when
I had to leave you
when my life
on Earth was through.
God picked me
up and hugged me and said, "I welcome you"
"It's good to
have you back again. You were missed while you were gone.
As for your dearest
family, they'll be here later on. I need you here so badly as a part of
my big plan,
There's so much
we have to do
to help our fellow
man."
Then God gave me a
list of
things He wished
for me to do.
And foremost
on that list of mine
is to watch and
care for you.
And I will be
beside you every
day and week
and year.
And when you're
sad, I'm standing there to wipe away the tear.
And when you
lie in bed at
night the day's
chores put to
flight.
God and I are
closest to you in the middle of the night.
When you think
of my life on
Earth and all
those loving years,
Because you're
only human,
they are bound
to bring you tears.
But do not be
afraid to cry. It
does relieve
the pain.
Remember there
would be no flowers unless there was some rain.
I wish that I
could tell you of all
that God has
planned,
But if I were
to tell you, you just
wouldn't understand.
But one thing
is for certain
though my life
on Earth is o'er.
I am closer to
you now than I ever was before.
And to my many
friends, trust
God knows what
is best,
I'm still not
far away from you.
I'm just beyond
the crest.
There are rocky
roads ahead of
you and hills
for you to climb,
But together
we can do it taking
one step at a
time.
It was always
my philosophy and
I'd like it for
you too,
That as you give
unto the world,
so the world
will give to you.
If you can help
somebody who's
In sorrow or in
pain,
Then you can
say to God at night, "My day was not in vain!"
And now I am contented
that
my life it was
worthwhile,
Knowing as I
passed along the
way, I made somebody
smile.
So if you meet
somebody who is down and feeling low,
Just lend a hand
to pick them up
as on your way
you go.
When you're walking
down the
street and you've
got me on
your mind,
I'm walking in
your footsteps
only half a step
behind.
And when you
feel that gentle
breeze or wind
upon your face,
That's me giving
you a great big hug
Or just a soft
embrace.
And when it's
time for you to go
from that body
to be free,
Remember you're
not going.
You are coming
here to me.
And I will always
love you from
that land way
up above.
Will be in touch
again soon.
P.S - God sends
His love.
Given to me by
a special friend of Lee's
Sarah Ferraro.
