I was very close to my father and was with him the night
he died.  I was not very well physically at that time and
now the emotional pain was severe.  Three years later,
the Lord sent me a friend who showed me how to find
the Jesus, the Lord and when He came into my life
and saved me and filled me with His Spirit, my life
changed drastically!  Praise the LORD!

Five Years Daddy It has been more than five years now dad since I have seen your face I remember that gentle smile and thoughtful look that my God took from me through grace. Now, Jesus also has taken my sorrow and my tears and turned them into joy He shared with me His love and His power and brought me through my darkest hour. The greatest joy I have now dad lies in this one fact that you and I and all God’s children will soon be together again when Jesus to earth comes back! Written by: Marilyn S. Jennings November 30, 1977
