One of the greatest challenges that faces mankind is death itself-  Terese has captured very tenderly the Light of God that will meet us in that day.- Editor

I was privileged to be with a friend this past week as she passed away and honored to get to minister to her daughter!  The daughter knew her mom was a Christian but didn't understand WHERE her mom would actually be and she was just struggling over it all.  Anyway, it was a precious time as I was able to talk to her and explain it to her and when it was all over, the Lord gave me the following poem written from her very own heart!  Hope it blesses you!

A Candle
In The Distance
 
by Terese Holloway
 
Light A Candle In The Distance
So I'll be sure and know;
The way to heaven's shoreline
When it comes, MY time, to go.
For, you've now walked the road before me
On life's journey to the throne;
You have reached the highest summit
And you have finally made it home.
You have entered into Glory
Where angelic creatures sing;
Where life has NEW  BEGINNING
And death has lost it's sting.
You have witnessed awesome splendor
That far surpassed what you believed;
It burst the boundaries of ALL limits
Of what your mortal eyes could see.
Yes, you've now entered into Glory
Into the presence of the Lord;
You are Living Life In Jesus
Where you'll abide forevermore.
So, Light A Candle In The Distance ~
Through the twinkle in a star;
And I'll look, UP, to heaven's shoreline,
And be reminded WHERE you are!
