Grace

Huh, I am filled
Full of Gods love and blessing in my life
I found you Lord at the most uncertain time
When pain was still filled with wonder
And wonder was of amazement
Amazement turned to Grace
And your blessing flowed over me

You brought me into this world for a very special purpose
But I lived my life not knowing where I was headed
Then you in a very unlikely way redirected my path
A path chosen with uncertainity, sorrow and pain
I was down throwden and everything was a struggle
But I still found strength to find hope

You have been my shield and protector
You lifted me high when it seemed I was drowning
When troubled you paved the path with new light


It is said “time heals”
 but after a year the pain remains 
though much better with memories helping with the healing process.
A year sure went by very quickly
And a day never went by without you on my mind

It is said “ele mawu si – you are in Gods hands”
With a life like yours, I have no doubt about that
You served him, praised him and worshiped him with all you had
You did good deeds and never held back on what you had

It is said ”God gives and takes his own”
I still think you left too soon
But the memories keep me going.

My dear mom, if only I could talk to you again and hold your hands.
But all I got now are the memories and that I will keep and hold close
Till we meet again… what more can be said.
