God's Garden

Submitted By: tammylee

God looked around his garden

And found an empty place.

He then looked down upon the earth,

And saw your tired face.

He put His arms around you

And lifted you to rest.

God’s garden must be beautiful,

He always takes the best.

He knew that you were suffering,

He knew that you were in pain.

He knew that you would never

Get well on earth again.

He saw the road was getting rough

And the hills were hard to climb.

So He closed your weary eyelids

And whispered “Peace be thine.”

It broke our hearts to lose you

But you did not go alone…

For part of us went with you

The day God called you home.

I am so sad to hear about Geneva. She was a wonderful lady. She was always so nice to me growing up. I always enjoyed spending time at her house when Ginger and I were kids. She made everyone feel right at home and what a wonderful cook she was!

Lagena (Cheatham) Immel is visiting and remembers her as a sweet, Hospitable and Godly woman. Remember God said “precious in the sight of the Lord is the death of his saints“ and “ To be absent in the body is to be present with the lord“.

She will be missed. We love you!
