When is God's time?
Les continues much the same. His blood pressure and pulse are basically undetectable. He has begun having some tears rest in his eyes. We have all given him our blessing to "go to the light", but he continues to hang back in our earthly world. The hospice nurses believe (as they have for hours) that it is close, but that it is ultimately in God's time. Mom is exhausted. She only got about an hour's sleep last night and refuses to lay down on the other twin bed in his room. Please pray for Mom, and for Les to begin the feast in the house with many rooms.

I pray for you all. You have all come through a most difficult time and it isn't over yet. Les will soon be resting in God's arms and you and your families have done all you can to send him the heaven with the knowledge that he was loved on earth with the love that few have. We thank you all for keeping us informed. Remember all the good times and let time heal your pain. Love and thoughts for all of you.Love you all, Joyce
ReplyDeleteThe hymnwriter wrote, "Asleep in Jesus Blessed Sleep"! What a wonderful way to describe the passing of God's children. Soon Les will fall asleep and awake with his heavenly Father in the presence of Jesus and listening to the angels' choir. May God help us all to understand the joy of eternity in heaven as we pray for strength to let him go. May God's peace that passes all human understanding be in the hearts, minds and souls of all Les's family, relatives and friends. Love in Christ, ELAINE & RON
ReplyDeleteOh, how I wish I could do more for you all. Your lives are forever changed, but your incredible faith, memories, and immense love will be a strength. (I am so sorry that some days that will not be enough.) May God's peace lift and comfort you as nothing earthly can. Hugs to all of you. Les would be/is so amazingly proud of each of you.
ReplyDeletePraying, praying, praying for your family.
