When the view from your kitchen window looks like this…
still roses on the Knock-Out bush |

John 14:1-6
This world is not my home I’m just passing through my treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue the angels beckon me from Heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore O Lord you know I have no friend like you if Heaven’s not my home then Lord what will I do? the angels beckon me from Heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore They’re all expecting me and that’s one thing I know my savior pardoned me and now I onward go I know He’ll take me through though I am weak and poor and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore O Lord you know I have no friend like you if Heaven’s not my home then Lord what will I do? the angels beckon me from Heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore Just up in Glory Land we’ll live eternally the Saints on every hand are shouting victory their song of sweetest praise drifts back from Heaven’s shore and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore O Lord you know I have no friend like you if Heaven’s not my home then Lord what will I do? the angels beckon me from Heaven’s open door and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore ~*~ Jim Reeves was a favorite of my mom. She even requested his songs be played at her funeral. Here is Jim Reeves singing, THIS WORLD IS NOT MY HOME Being prepared for eternity is the most important decision we can make James 4:14 Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes Psalm 39:5 You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Each man’s life is but a breath Psalm 144:4 Man is like a breath; his days are like a fleeting shadow Proverbs 27:1 Do not boast about tomorrow, for you do not know what a day may bring forth Isaiah 30:18 Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; he rises to show you compassion. For the LORD is a God of justice. Blessed are all who wait for him! |

Hold My Heart
“There are times when things look very dark to me — so dark that I have to wait even for hope. A long-deferred fulfillment carries its own pain, but to wait for hope, to see no glimmer of a prospect & yet refuse to despair; to have nothing but night before the casement & yet to keep the casement open for possible stars; to have a vacant place in my heart & yet to allow that place to be filled by no inferior presence — that is the grandest patience in the universe.
