I Am Still Near

Death has taken me from this world, and through we are apart, I am still near.

All that we meant to each other remains true, in trust and faith, have no fear.

Keep me always close to your heart!

For I leave with you what no one can steal, a treasure chest of precious, happy memories;

the tender, love-filled moments we shared, as well as the challenging times that brought us closer together.

When you are in need, speak to me, call my name.

I will come to you with wisdom and light to fill your soul with peace, and to guide you in the pathways that lead to life forever with our Loving God.

I also offer you this sacred promise: when I am home in God’s embrace, whenever you call on me, I will still be present to you,

for neither death nor grave can break the bonds of love that we on earth once knew.
