I *love* that you said this..."Thankful for this life here, but ever so much more thankful for the permanent life there - a life more beautiful than we can imagine because we get to physically be with Jesus!" Amen! <br /><br />Angela ~ Thank you so much my friend. The *resurrection bed* was an idea Howie came across in his recent readings....it is a lovely picture, isn't it? <br /><br />Tami ~ So sorry to read of recent difficulties my sweet friend.

Your words of hard-learned wisdo...Dearest Camille, <br />Your words of hard-learned wisdom, peace, truth, pain, and encouragement here on this blog are true soul food. Visiting leaves me aching with you, longing for more of the Lord, encouraged for the mercy I recieve for all the ways I've blown it, and better focused on true life in Christ and the bigger picture of eternity and life in Heaven. We've been through some challenging times this spring and summer, yet perspective is a great help for focus, and there are simply no utterable words that can adequately convey what my heart feels when my mind turns toward you and your precious family. I think of you often, miss you much, and pray for you as God calls you to mind. <br />Thank you for the absolute light you have been even in your grief. Your witness to God's goodness is soul-lifting and you do indeed help me to long for the Lord all the more. I love you for that. <br />With Love from Texas, <br />TamiTamihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11034911135836542823noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-345646302373200929.post-13720464481981885982013-08-22T20:15:11.884-07:002013-08-22T20:15:11.884-07:00What a beautiful headstone Camille.

Funny thing is that you and your precious Austin turned my heart to heaven about 30 minutes ago as I was having special time with my oldest son. <br /><br />We were reading in Romans where it says to rejoice with those who rejoice and to weep with those who weep. I was explaining what the verse meant and telling him how I had wept with you... Telling my firstborn son this made me tear up again. He paused and then looked up at me and asked if I thought Austin was in heaven. A smile spread across my face as I told him that I KNEW he was. And we proceeded to talk about heaven and the gospel. Xander was so happy that you all would see him again and that we'd get a chance to meet him too.<br /><br />Thankful for this life here, but ever so much more thankful for the permanent life there - a life more beautiful than we can imagine because we get to physically be with Jesus!Heather@Cultivated Liveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17141323325746602171noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-345646302373200929.post-17503925090980423932013-08-22T19:14:12.734-07:002013-08-22T19:14:12.734-07:00Dianna ~ You are a blessing to me! :)

It is such a relief when we know our loved ones are indeed with Jesus and in a blink of an eye we will all be together again. I LOVE this song:<br /><br /> "When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be, When we all see Jesus, we'll sing and shout the victory!" <br /><br />I want to sing and shout now in praise and anticipation of that day. I continue to pray for your family.
