But your grace sustained me. Your merciful hand held my shaky hands and
your super watchful eyes never left mine at every given time. Your
shoulder I sought at the very darkest nights when there's nobody else...
I bless and praise your name, for all your faithfulness in my
faithlessness, unfaithfulness and never ending despair... I can pretend
I'm ok to the whole world. But with you I can't. And I don't, because I
will always need You God. Plus You God, you search, see, heal and repair
a broken heart...
My heart is ever stronger now, than 15 years ago.
Of course the grief and the loneliness sort of pop up now and then!
Only YOU can fill that.
But thank you God, your children and grandchildren You have used to fill most of the void.
Alleluia. Alleluia. Alleluia.
Your mercy established and found our seeds = Richard Omale, Mariam Peter-omale, Peter Junior Omale, Stephanie Peter-Omale, and Kevin Josh Omale.
And you establish them. You strengthened them. You taught and ordered them into their divine destinies.
You have done for them
Much more he'd have done perhaps.
Four of them university graduates
And the last born still in Uni studying Computer science...
Because it's not by him that runs or wills it, it's all by You, God because of your mercy.
We say thank you Lord for the tumultuous journey so far
For the good and bad
The easy and challenging
The often empty jars that You faithfully fill up. The manna you drop
down from above when our barns dry up. Doing good for us, exactly at the
point we have needs.
My human heart always always miss him. Oh yes....
Miss not seeing to fruition the plans to grow old and gray together...
I'm doing all the greys and growing old all by meself!
Miss him not seeing his children grow into God inspired independent men and women...
Because it is Your will God.
We will forever sing your praise God, we have nothing else to do but bask in your grace and mercy.
Everything is to your glory Lord. Everything, always ends in Your praise my God.
Love always
