I think I may have mentioned this before but I will risk saying it again. Our life in the eyes of God would probably amount to a couple of seconds. God is for eternity but my physical body grows old and eventually will wear out. My spirit is a different story. It can live for eternity but only if I accept my Savior as my Lord and my God.

Now as I hit my golden years I find that I have grown old so fast.
I realize that life has left me with a mixture of memories.
Of days of youth that could not last.

I treasure many of those memories and dread some others.
I experience a feeling of deep exhaustion.
I remember fishing trips with my father and brothers.
I reflect upon the times spent with aunts and uncles and all my relations.

I simply remember some of them now, for they have already been called to the sky.
My mother and father are with God today as is my brother I pray.
For one by one my elders have been escorted to the sweet by and by.
I will treasure their memory until my Master says to me, “come, and do not delay.

I am calling your spirit to your heavenly home.
You will not know sadness for there is no place for it here.
This will be a home from which you never wish to roam.
You will never know worry and never know fear.

You will sup with the Angels and forever live free.
In Heaven there will be no restraints for they are not needed.
True happiness will be yours and once you have seen eternity
You will realize that your Earthly life was short but blessed for my words you have heeded.
