There will be a day

May 12, 2021
I try to hold on to this world
With everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings
And the hurt that tries to grab
The many trials that seem to never end
His word declares this truth
That we will enter in this rest
With wonders anew
But I hold on to this hope
And the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering
There will be a day with no more tears
No more pain and no more fears
There will be a day
When the burdens of this place
Will be no more
We'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day
We'll hold on to you always
I know the journey seems so long
You feel you're walking on your own
But there has never been a step
Where you've walked out all alone
Troubled soul don't lose your heart
'Cause joy and peace He brings
And the beauty that's in store
Outweighs the hurt of life's sting
But I hold on to this hope
And the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering
There will be a day with no more tears
No more pain and no more fears
There will be a day
When the burdens of this place
Will be no more
We'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day
We'll hold on to you always
I can't wait until that day
Where the very one I've lived for always
Will wipe away the sorrow that I've faced (vipe away the sorrow)
To touch the scars that rescued me
From a life of shame and misery
Oh, this is why, this is why I sing
There will be a day with no more tears
No more pain and no more fears
There will be a day
When the burdens of this place
Will be no more
We'll see Jesus face to face
There will be a day with no more tears
No more pain and no more fears
There will be a day
When the burdens of this place
Will be no more
We'll see Jesus face to face
There will be a day
He will wipe away the tears
He will wipe away the tears
He will wipe away the tears
And there will be a day

Brother

May 11, 2021
We didn't always have a lot.  But we always had each other.  Jerry was always good for a laugh.  Like the time the pond froze & him & Toby strapped me to an ironing board.  They shoved it onto the pond to see if the ice was thick enough to walk on.  It wasn't.  But hey, at least they did get me out.  
I remember getting off of the school bus and all of us racing down the driveway to that green apple tree.  We were always outside it seems, picking blackberries, jumping hay bales, jumping on horses and riding them all over the pasture. I remember going with Jerry to the creek to pan for gold.  We would all go fishing at the big pond.  I remember coming home from school one day and Jerry had aluminum foil all over the living room and on the tv antenna, we got three or four more channels that way.  
He loved to tell Ya Momma jokes.  I remember when he started taking taekwondo and wanted to fight Toby all the time.  He was always into something.  Jerry loved to draw.  He was very talented.  He was always very smart.
This world is full of demons, and it has a way of dragging you down.  I know that we all grew apart over the years but there's a bond between siblings that even death can't break.  I'll always love you big brother.  I pray that you have found peace.
