Blanchie DeGrate

It's so hard for me to say 'goodbye'...
to those folks that we hold dear...
how my heart too often, aches
just because they are not here...
They are living in my dreams...
When I wake, tears fill my eyes...
For the emptiness I feel
in my heart, I can't disguise.
They all passed this way but once
How they touched my heart & soul
in a very special way!
Their departure left a "hole."
None will ever take their place...
Oh, how my eyes long to see
all these dear ones who are gone...
For they meant the world to me!
How I long for their embrace -
just to hear their voice once more...
and to see their loving smiles -
These are things that I long for!
Are these hopes we entertain
nothing more than wishful thinking?
Or is there a firm foundation
that our hopes will be the real thing?
Yes, we all have a real hope
There's a time when we will see
earthly paradise restored
Then all the dead will be...
Restored to life again..
Never more to separate...
from their families and friends...
This God's promises do state.
Loving kindness will be shown..
by Jehovah through his Son...
Who lay down his perfect life
So that God's will would be done.
What a grand time that will be!
When death will be no more
All in 'Hades" are set free...
What a grand hope lies in store!
We won't have to say 'goodbye'
We'll cry tears of joy instead...
For our hearts will overflow
when we welcome back the dead!

Thank  you  JEHOVAH    ? .•*¨`*•..¸???¸.•*¨`*•. ?

Jesus  our  KING  will  come  saving  us

When we lose a loved one in death, what can help us to endure?

JW Animated DAILY TEXT Monday FEBRUARY 5, 2018

Remember.....  your Grand Creator in the days of your youth,  before the  days of distress come.—Eccl. 12:1.
Many of the problems addressed in our publications for young people are not unique to them. All of us need to defend our faith, control our emotions, reject harmful peer pressure, and avoid unwholesome associations and entertainment. These topics and many others have been addressed in material designed for teenagers. Should adult Christians feel that it is demeaning for them to read publications directed to young people? Not at all! Although the material is presented in a way that appeals to youths, the information is based on timeless Scriptural principles, and all of us can benefit from these spiritual provisions. Besides helping young people to deal with problems, our publications help them to grow spiritually and draw close to Jehovah. Here, too, adult Christians can benefit.—Eccl. 12:13. w16.05 5:15, 16

Dear Sister Blanchie,
I can not even imagine the pain you are feeling at this time. I have lost loved ones too but never a husband or a child. Such pain. Jehovah takes care of the broken hearted and will help you thru this. Prayers for you and your family.

@Blanchie DeGrate i pray for you 

For he hath delivered me out of all trouble; And mine eye hath seen (my desire) upon mine enemies...

I  PRAYED  TO  JEHOVAH....     ( I  shared  it  for  us  all...)
I dreamed that I prayed to Jehovah on high,
Complained of my troubles and started to cry.
I said to Jehovah, I can't take it anymore!
Please bring it real soon, your great day of war!
I  endure every day at the end of my rope,
I  just do not see any way I can cope.
I face constant pressure each day without doubt.
With all of my problems there's  just no way out.
He patiently listened as if on bended knee,
I griped and complained about what bothered me.
His loving concern as I emptied my head,
Made me feel so secure in his love, when He said:
I understand  just what you're going through,
This time of the end makes it harder for you.
But you see, I too have been waiting so long,
And  I must make sure my people are strong!
Since the very first couple, Adam and  Eve,
My heart many times had been made to grieve.
Though  I sent my son down to earth just to die,
Most people rejected what his life could buy.
I've been pushed aside by all those I love,
For other false gods they have put high above.
They even say I don't exist or I'm dead,
That life just evolved from the monkey instead.
I surely don't want you to suffer or cry,
I'll give you my strength on which to rely.
You need to endure but please do not doubt,
If it gets too tough, I will provide the way out.
The new world is near so endure to the end,
For I am Jehovah and I am your friend.
The life that's ahead is worth oh so much more
You'll take such delight in what I have in store.
Just think what it will be like in paradise,
Why even the dead from the tombs will arise!
You'll feel so much better and have joy each day,
Your memories of troubles will soon pass away >>>>
These promises given will surely come true,
And it won't be long before all becomes new.
So please be determined endure to the end,
For  I am Jehovah, your savior, your friend
