And It Came To Pass

When the ravages of life came raging like hurricanes upon her gentle shores;                                                  When adversities like tsunamis came rocking, knocking, and rolling at her doors;

She did not ignore or turn them away but did her best to give them a happy day. When bad times, contrary news, and health issues hovered over her gentle soul; 

she did not worry or fret, nor did her faith grow weak no matter the threat. Let come what may, she always knew that tests and trials never came to stay.

It's not that she was not human like all of us because her pains she did not mask.                                              She simply knew that she would have the last laugh and nothing against her 

would last. When others stood aghast and filled with dismay,  with a smile she would always say these two lines:, "This too shall pass"; "And it came to pass".
