"A letter from Heaven"

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say. But first of all, to let you know, that I arrived okay. I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above. Here, there's no more tears of sadness; Here is just eternal love. Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight. Remember that I am with you every morning, noon and night. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through. God picked me up and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again, you were missed while you were gone. As for your dearest family, They'll be here later on. I need you here badly, you're part of my plan. There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man,"God gave me a list of things that he wished for me to do and foremost on the list was to watch and care for you. When you lie in bed at night the day's chores put to flight. God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving chores put to flight. God and I are closest to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth, and all those loving years. Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. But do not be afraid to cry: it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned. If I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand. But one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over. I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before. There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb; but together we can do it by taking one day at a time. It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too; that as you give unto the world, the world will give to you. If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain; then you can say to God at night. "My day was not in vain "and now I am contented that my life was worthwhile. Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low; just lend a hand to pick him up, as on your way you go. When you're walking down the street and you've got me on your mind; I'm walking in your footsteps only half a step behind and when it's time for you to go from that body to be free. Remember you're not going, you're coming here to me.Author: Ruth Ann Mahaffey

Response to:  Letter from Heaven

We received your letter from heaven above and we were sure it was written with all of your love. You asked us not to be unhappy because you're out of sight well, you left so many beautiful memories we guess it's all right. The day you had to leave us is a day we will never forget. We all gathered around your bedside knowing who you met. He picked you up and hugged you and said "I welcome You." We realized it was over, there was nothing we could do. He told you he missed you while you were gone but that your family would be here later on. There was much to do, you were part of his plan and until we all get there we won't understand. He gave you a list of things to do, one of them was to watch over the ones who loved you. For when our day is over, and all our chores are done, we feel your presence as you said and we think it's kinda fun When we do think of you, and all those loving years, we just can't help it, it just brings us to tears. Crying does relieve some pain, but it keeps coming back again and again. We probably wouldn't understand what plan God has for us, but we can see that you're happy, so his plan we all shall trust. Although your life is over one thing is for sure, we do feel you are closer to us then ever before. You mentioned in your letter of some tough times ahead,and we know you will be watching with many tears to shed. May we follow your advice," give to the world, and the world gives to you." We always trusted your philosophy, so this we know is true. You told us to find someone in pain and sorrow, and let them know there's a better tomorrow. You should be content, your life was worthwhile! We have many many pictures that make us all smile! When we see someone feeling sad and low, we will pick them up and tell them "we love you so." How did you know that when we have you on our mind we walk a little slower cause we know you're right behind. And when our time is over, we know we must die too. We'll know just where we're going, WE'RE COMING HOME TO YOU!!!
