gratitude - uncle dale

gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. it turns what we have into enough, and more. it turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. it can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. - melody beattie -

things i would tell my parents .... if i could

For many of us life passes far to quickly. Here are a few things i would say to mom and dad ... if i could.

i love you .... i should have told you more often

i miss you more than anyone can ever know

i miss seeing you

i miss hugging you

i miss talking to you on the phone

i miss hearing your voice

thank you for loving me ... even though at times i gave you reason not to

thank you for being such good parents ... and good examples

thank you for taking me to church

thank you for taking me to family reunions

thank you for showing me that "things" are not important, family is

thank you for being such good examples of Godly parents

your grandchildren are wonderful young adults

your great grandchildren are wonderful and so much like you both

What words do you need to speak to your parents ?

home

This past saturday in the early morning hours my Uncle Fred Robb went home. The dictionary defines home as "the place where one lives permanently" . Fred Robb's home was not here on this earth but in a home prepared for him by his heavenly father. Jesus said "In my Father's house are many dwelling places;if it were not so,I would have told you;for I go to prepare a place for you Fred Robb. If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, that where I am, there you may be also. On Saturday morning the house was completed, and shortly after his heavenly father called Uncle Fred home to show him what He had been preparing for him. Enjoy eternity Uncle Fred, you were a wonderful Uncle and a great example for generations of Robb's to come.
