| A Young Death
She was taken And the years were few Little of this mortal life observed. The fever ravaged Did its work And she without Apparent twinge of fear Passed over gloriously. Oh precious woman You taught her well Gave her Christ in one hand Grace in the other. She knew not departure In all its pitiful loss But rather arrival with smiles. A Beautiful Vine Now blossoming On the other side of the wall. Glorious light from Jesus Giving health and song. Weep not Rather anticipate briefly The hilarious reunion In common faith. (Based on a letter of Christian comfort from Samuel Rutherford) |

| Such a beautiful portrait of a thing that is so hard to endure, and yet a wonderous event when you believe HIS truth. Thanks for sharing. |
