Melody is our eight year old. she is a wonderful writer and expresses herself well on paper. Last Friday she shared with me this journal entry that I thought was very beautiful. My Life is Like a Rose One day my petal falls off But I know that I am getting closer to see God Sometimes I wonder if today I am going to die But I know that it is in God's hands So little children remember Our life is like a rose and we must follow God until our petals are all gone And when we die we will go to heaven And God will give us an eternal rose. By Melody J. Johnson 8 years old. Please do not think that this is morbid. We have had much death the last 2 years and our Melody has had to deal with losing ones that she has known and loved, death is very real to her. I am thankful that she has such a healthy view of life and knowledge that each day is indeed like a petal falling off of a rose, but, drawing us closer to God. |
