My Father is Gone ...

May 23, 2007 / by myra

Dear friends, family, and co-workers,

My family and I want to extend our sincerest thank you for the consolation you gave us.
Thank you for the kind words during the funeral service, the flowers, the words of symphathy, cars, donations, cards, food, for house sitting during the funeral and other volunteer services. Even your presence during the funeral meant a lot to all of us .

Also to all the emails you sent to me they are all greatly appreciated. They gave me much comfort and will continue to comfort me during the coming months.

To my TCM family, I am so blessed that I belong to this family. Thank you for supporting my father during his ministry and for acknowledging him as one of your partner in the service of the Master.I know how much you all meant to him at work.

He died at 56. Still young but I know that my father is happy with the Lord in heaven. As his favorite verse says, " For to me to live is Christ and to die is gain" I know his service in the Lord will not be in vain.

We hope that you continue to lift us up in prayers especially for mom's strength and for her journey ahead.


In His keeping,
Myra

    May Allah bless you and console your heart . May Allah shower his peace and happiness upon you so that you do not feel the loss of your father. May Allah keep your heart on the straight path with strength . May Allah make you brave to face the life on your own. May Allah help you discover yourself. May Allah be your friend and patron. May Allah make your best decision when you are lost and confused. And I wish you a very good life.

    I think I got too emotional here but I can tell you how it feels when you lose a loved one.[SAD][SAD]

    Once a man dreamed that he was walking along the beach with G-d. Across the sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belonging to him, and the other to G-d.

    When the last scene of his life flashed before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that along the path of his life, there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the lowest and saddest times.

    This bothered him and he questioned G-d about it. “G-d, you said that once I decided to follow You, You’d walk with me all the way. But I see that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. How could You leave me when I needed You most?”

    G-d replied, “My precious, precious child, I love you and would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering I was carrying you.”
