"THE DOOR THAT NEVER CLOSES"
Hi folks, this is Two Texas PawPaw. At the last place I was employed before my retirement, a friend of mine passed away. We were close and his Mother worked there also. She took her sons death real hard, as any mother probably would. I wrote her a poem and she has told me several times it really helped her through some tough days. I'll share the thought with you and perhaps if you have lost a loved one lately, it might help. It goes like this:-----THERE'S A DOOR THAT NEVER CLOSES, THOUGH IT OPENS BUT ONE WAY---IT'S THE DOOR THAT LEADS TO HEAVEN AT THE END OF LIFE'S LONG DAY---IT'S THE THRESHOLD OF FOREVER, WHERE THE HEART IS ALWAYS GLAD---IT'S A RESPITE FOR THE WEARY, AND A COMFORT FOR THE SAD---IT'S THE DOOR TO PEACE AND HEALING, AND THE DOOR TO JOY AND GRACE---WHERE THE MASTER GREETS EACH GUEST BY NAME, AND WITH A WARM EMBRACE---AND THE LOVED ONE'S WHO PASS THROUGH, INTO THE LIGHT THAT'S SHINNING THERE---FIND A SWEET AND PERFECT HOME, WITHIN OUR FATHER'S LOVING CARE---YOUR LOVED ONE NOW HAS FOUND THAT PLACE, THAT'S SWEET AS FRESH CUT ROSES---SO REST ASSURED THAT HE HAS PASSED, THROUGH THE DOOR THAT NEVER CLOSES:-----This is Two Texas PawPaw, signing off, and, the good Lord willing and the creeks don't rise, I'll be back tomorrow.
