I found out last Wednesday that a girl I went to college with was diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer. The next day I found out that she passed away. She had only been diagnosed for a week. She was only 32. She left behind her husband, David, and their 3 young children.
I just don’t understand! Why would God allow this to happen? It’s something we’ll never know this side of heaven. And that’s where Bethany is now. Living it up with Jesus. I know that I will see her and all my loved ones who have gone on before me.
There is a song called “If You Could See Me Now” that is so pretty. A slideshow of pictures of Bethany was set to this song.
Our prayers have been answered
I finally arrived
The healing that had been delayed
Is now realized
No one’s in a hurry
There’s no schedule to keep
We’re all enjoying Jesus
Just sitting at His feet
If you could see me now
I’m walking streets of gold
If you could see me now
I’m standing tall and whole
If you could see me now
You’d know I’ve seen His face
If you could see me now
You’d know the pain’s erased
You wouldn’t want me
To ever leave this place
If only you could see me now
My light and temporary trials
Have worked out for my good
To know it brought Him glory
When I misunderstood
Though we’ve had our sorrows
They can never compare
To what Jesus has in store for us
No language can share
As long as we have Jesus, we have hope. 🙂
