~x♥x~ A CHRISTMAS PRAYER ~x♥x~

~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~
As we draw to the end of another year,
We think of the ones that we hold so dear;
We pause to give thanks for our friends so true,
And ask God to bless them, the old and new.
We hold up each loved one before His Throne
And ask Him to comfort the ones alone;
For those who have lost someone they hold dear,
We ask Him to strengthen and hold them near.
For those who have prospered, with new joys to savour,
We ask God continues to show them His favour.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~

And those with new babies, or newly wed,
We ask Him to smooth out the path ahead;
For those who are ill and can barely stand,
We ask for the touch of His healing hand.
For those with new homes, with new jobs and new stress,
We ask Him to crown all their plans with success.
For those who have dreams and think, 'It's now or never,'
We ask Him to bless all that they should endeavour .
For those who are facing an uphill climb,
We ask Him to carry them through this time.
~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~ ~x♥x~

As we come to the start of a brand new year,
We pray for the ones that we hold so dear.
We ask that each one will be soundly blessed,
To taste of His goodness and know His best;
For angels to watch o'er them day and night,
For miracles, blessings and sheer delight!
We ask for the gifts that the world can't buy:
A glimpse at the wonders of Heaven on high,
Contentment and joy till the Lord comes again,
This we ask for our friends, in His Name, Amen.

*♥~Memories In The Heart~♥*

*♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥*xXx*♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥~♥*
Feel no guilt in laughter, she knows how much you care
Feel no sorrow in a smile that she’s not here to share
You cannot grieve forever, she would not want you to
She’d hope that you can carry on, the way you always do
So talk about the good times and the ways you showed you cared
The days you spent together, all the happiness you shared
Let memories surround you.
A word someone may say
Will suddenly recapture a time, an hour, a day
That brings her back as clearly as though she were still here
And fills you with the feelings that she is always near
For if you keep these moments, you will never be apart
And she will live forever locked safe within your heart...

17 Days To Christmas

Hi Rach, it's nearly Christmas and I hate the thought of it, we always used to love it, nan and grandad coming around and we all opened our presents and then had our lovely christmas dinner etc, this year who would have ever dreamt that we would be going to the Cemetry to see you and grandad, having to come home and try to make the best of it, just the four of us, nan, Mike, your dad and I, I'm trying to be strong Rach, I've put a few bits up, haven't written a card yet, maybe I will, you loved Christmas so much Rach, like a little girl, last year was a different story, grandad so ill and then losing him on Christmas day, your dad always says he was a special person and died on the most special day of the year, then to lose you four weeks later, I sometimes still think has this all really happened to us, I've had dreams that you have come back to us, if only eh, I love you Rach, God bless you, love mum xxxx

Christmas Time!

Hi Rach,
Well I put my christmas tree up on Tuesday and when I came home yesturday Sam had put all the other deccies up aswell. Ive got those tacky ceiling deccies Rach and I love them. I would usually have had my tree up by 1st November as you know but this year I cant seem to get myself motivated. Its just not the same. I will miss ringing you on christmas morning to see what father christmas has brought you, like little kids. You probably would have asked for a couple more cabbage patch dolls!! ha ha ha. We all have a cabbage patch what your mum gave us Rach, I used to skit you about them but now I will treasure my cabbage patch forever! Then christmas night we would always do something. There are no plans in place for over christmas yet Rach, no one can be bothered. It is usually you planning what we could do, going on the internet to find out if there are any nights on we could get tickets for on boxing night and new year! Wish you were here to see the new year in with us, this will be the first new year without you mate. Its horrible to think that we will never see you again. You were always up for a party and a laugh. It is my work christmas night out next Friday, we are going go karting in the day and then to the Tavern on Smithdown Road for some nice grub and then out for drinks afterwards, should be good. Mollie came round to ours a couple of weeks ago with your Mike to meet Charlie, it was hilarious Rach Mollie was jumping all over Charlie licking his face. Then she went in the kitchen and ate all his food!! ha ha ha, dont think he was too impressed. Going to have to bring her round again she's boss! Your Mike was round last night too with his playstation 3 playing with Sam. I miss you so much Rach and think about you all the time girl. I still cant believe this has actually happened sometimes. Love you always my little mate. Jen.xxxxxxxx

Everybody's Friend

Hi Rach, just thinking about you as always every minute of every hour, I was just looking at all your photos, it's hard to believe that you have gone forever, but always in my mind and my heart Rach, Grandads birthday yesterday, we got through it, nan and I went to see you both and took lovely flowers and plants, we went into town for lunch and a look around the shops, so sad because you are not with us Rach, on Wednesday we went to Stockton Heath with Trish and Pauline, we had a nice day, I met Sue today for a coffee then took nan to see our Sheilas new house, its gorgeous, can't get myself in any sort of Christmas mood, too hard without you, I'm dreading it especially with losing your grandad on Christmas Day and you four weeks later Rach, you loved Christmas,you made it happy because you were so much fun Rach, stay close to me, I need you to, love mum xxxx
