Michael Another day, though the promise of God is everlasting and sure, and He is the rock of my salvation, and He is the author of eternity and Michael is still no longer with us He's with our Lord God yet everyday the pain in my heart does not fade and crying yet still strong. My heart, oh my heart it bleeds. It bleeds for it misses my friend, husband, dad and brother, Michael! It bleeds for LC-B and for our Jessica. It cries daily with the extended family. Oh Lord you are good but this really hurts and is really painful. You oh Lord know the end from the beginning though this is known, you oh Lord love us beyond our comprehension or understanding yet still the Love we have still hurts it hurts real bad. You oh Lord have taken your child home, you left us behind. Yes it was sudden and quick and way too soon, we thank you that you have taken him home but it really hurts. He is in a better place with you we know but it still hurts, the pain is physical, the pain is mental the pain is spiritual! You and only you oh Lord truly knows the pain we feel. You sent your Son that He would suffer and die and be raised again, that we might be born to live and accept you that we would die and live with you for eternity we know that we believe it, we accept it but it still hurts and it hurts real bad. Oh Lord gave him shared him with us he touched us with his actions of love, with his thoughts of love with his implementation of love in various aspects of our lives, thank you for giving him to us, thank you scheduling that he meet and interact with us thank you oh Lord that he showed us some of the love you meant us know and understand, yet Lord God let me be honest with you, you have taken him home, taken him back to your bosom, you are giving him faithful and just wages of eternal life thank you, but Lord God it hurts us that you have taken him. The pain, the confusion that lack of understanding the sheer conbabulated lack of comprehension that our minds can't handle it, hurts! Lord God you know the words are not enough you, oh Lord, know the cries of our heart, you know the pain and thanks that cannot be expressed in words, our hearts haemorrhage with pain, yet we thank and praise that in that pain that only you can understand. Michael did a lot, he touched our lives in ways that only we know and we praise you for him. He was part of Your hands, feet and your mind here on earth and he did a great job, we felt Your love through him, he expressed some of you and we thank you. Thank you oh Lord for making him, giving him and letting us know him. Help us oh Lord through the hurt and pain and help us to see your heart your love for us in our grief. Forgive my confusion in my round about words and confusion in my mind and brain as I may have mentioned dear Lord and I know you know it really seriously hurts, thank you for listening for my round about prayer, expression of pain, thank you oh Lord God know through your Son Jesus Christ, but it still hurts, thank you Lord God you know our hearts, keep Michael, safe and cosy in your arms till we again for our eternal party, in Jesus' mighty name, please help us through the pain. Amen
