Whisper softly  in my ear
So I shall know that you are near
Be there with me all my life
Should I face fear, should I face strife
For all the days I walk this earth
From the moment of my birth
Help me live, to understand
That He who loves me, sent  you here
To whisper softly in my ear.

LETTER FROM HEAVEN

            To Those I love,         
            Since my parting, you have been sharing so much of me with
those around you. 
            The memories are so fresh and real.  You hold on to me so
tightly in your
            hearts – where I shall always be. Your concern has always
been for me,
            but I wonder how you are doing.       
             You will never know all of the prayers that have been
prayed for you,
            the tears that have been shed over your grief and the
concern that has been
            shown for you in the multitude of ways, but I find it so
comporting to know
            you haven't been left alone.          
            Please know that I am not alone either. 
            The death that hurt you the most has given me the gift of
eternal life. 
            God’s promises have been fulfilled in me.  
            When I left you, God was there, waiting, just as He
promised. 
            I'm surrounded by perfect love.  Never let anyone tell you
God doesn't exist. 
            If you need to be mad at Him for awhile, that’s okay: He
can take it. 
            But never let hate, anger or bitterness fuel your emotions. 
            Talk to Him and let Him talk to you. Listen for Him in the
voices of
            the people who love and care about you, and let His Word
reassure you
            that I'm doing just fine.          
            It is comforting to know that you hold me so close while
struggling
            with the prospect of letting me go. You need to know that
we'll will
            always be together. Eternity is not “out there’ eternity is
now! 
            I have simply moved a little farther ahead of you.         
             Remember that God never wastes anything – especially love. 
            The love that we'll shared on earth will be even greater in
Heaven. 
            For now, you must rest assured that I am safe in God’s
perfect love. 
            I would like you to take some of the love you have for me
and share
            it with those around you.  You can never run out of love –
the more you
            give away, the more you will have.  And let others love
you. . . .
            you are worth loving.       
            Life is forever.  Mine has changed in the twinkle of an eye
where yours
            is changing day-by-day and minute-by-minute. 
            Though your life will never be the same, that does not mean
that I cannot
            be filled with peace, joy and love.  Always look to the
future.        
            Don't be afraid of tomorrow – God is already there.  Be
patient with yourself. 
            You will make some mistakes, and you will even find
yourself not thinking
            about me from time to time.  That’s all right too.  All of
my needs are
            being met; you need to take care of you.  When you think of
me, never
            thinks of me as being alone.  Think of me smiling, laughing
and enjoying
            all that God has prepared for me.           
            Hold onto one another, help each other, give hope and love
to all you meet. 
            Above all, be prepared to welcome others into your world of
grief and mourning. 
            You are being taught a valuable lesson that will need to be
passed along. 
            Some will not have your strength, many will not have your
faith, and most
            will feel they are all alone; but all will need the love
and understanding
            only you will be able to give.  Now, your pain is the only
credential you need
            to minister to others.

Always please remember me,
never to forget one moment with me.
I'll never forget one day with you
or the love I once had with you.
Always remember the way we played
and the nights and days we made.
I know this is the way it has to be,
just promise you'll always remember me.
