Ashes to ashes, dust to dust
Today we committed your ashes to the the earth and as we did so I was asked to read from the book of Proverbs Chapter 31...
31:10. Who shall find a valiant woman? far, and from the uttermost coasts is the price of her.
31:11. The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoils.
31:12. She will render him good, and not evil all the days of her life.
31:13. She hath sought wool and flax, and hath wrought by the counsel of her hands.
31:14. She is like the merchant’s ship, she bringeth her bread from afar.
31:15. And she hath risen in the night, and given a prey to her household, and victuals to her maidens.
31:16. She hath considered a field, and bought it: with the fruit of her hands she hath planted a vineyard.
31:17. She hath girded her loins with strength, and hath strengthened her arm.
31:18. She hath tasted, and seen that her traffic is good: her lamp shall not be put out in the night.
31:19. She hath put out her hand to strong things, and her fingers have taken hold of the spindle.
31:20. She hath opened her hand to the needy, and stretched out her hands to the poor.
31:21. She shall not fear for her house in the cold of snow: for all her domestics are clothed with double garments.
31:22. She hath made for herself clothing of tapestry: fine linen, and purple, is her covering.
31:23. Her husband is honourable in the gates, when he sitteth among the senators of the land.
31:24. She made fine linen, and sold it, and delivered a girdle to the Chanaanite.
The Chanaanite... The merchant, for Chanaanite, in Hebrew, signifies a merchant.
31:25. Strength and beauty are her clothing, and she shall laugh in the latter day.
31:26. She hath opened her mouth to wisdom, and the law of clemency is on her tongue.
31:27. She hath looked well on the paths of her house, and hath not eaten her bread idle.
31:28. Her children rose up, and called her blessed: her husband, and he praised her.
31:29. Many daughters have gathered together riches: thou hast surpassed them all.
31:30. Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: the woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.
31:31. Give her of the fruit of her hands: and let her works praise her in the gates.
As you have passed away the pain has not dimed for you were loved! The hurt that we feel is now not as raw put it is still painful.
31:10. Who shall find a valiant woman? far, and from the uttermost coasts is the price of her.
31:11. The heart of her husband trusteth in her, and he shall have no need of spoils.
31:12. She will render him good, and not evil all the days of her life.

If tears could build a stairway
&
memories a lane
I'd walk right up to heaven
&
bring you home again
How Can I Tell you
How can I tell you that I love you, I love you
but I can't think of right words to say
I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you
I'm always thinking of you, but my words
just blow away, just blow away
It always ends up to one thing, honey
and I can't think of right words to say
Wherever I am girl, I'm always walking with you
I'm always walking with you, but I look and you're not there
Whoever I'm with, I'm always, always talking to you
I'm always talking to you, and I'm sad that
you can't hear, sad that you can't hear
It always ends up to one thing, honey,
when I look and you're not there
I need to know you, need to feel my arms around you
feel my arms around you, like a sea around a shore
and -- each night and day I pray, in hope
that I might find you, in hope that I might
find you, because heart's can do no more
It always ends up to one thing honey, still I kneel upon the floor
How can I tell you that I love you, I love you
but I can't think of right words to say
I long to tell you that I'm always thinking of you
I'm always thinking of you....
It always ends up to one thing honey
and I can't think of right words to say
"Love Hurts"
No farewels were spoke, We didnt say goodbye.
You were gone before we knew it, and only God knows why.
We seldom ask for miracles, but today just one will do.
That is to leave the front door open, and see you walk right through.
Hold your arms around her jesus, kiss her smiling face. For Erika was something special, that nobody could replace. Rest In Peace Our Angel x x Sarah x x
