“You Are Not Alone”

Have you ever woke up from a dream

where you were carrying on a conversation with someone you really loved

only to remember they have gone on to be with the Lord?

“You Are Not Alone”!

It happens to us all who have lost a loved one.

But for those who have been redeemed

For those who have given their life to Christ

we will see our loved ones again in Heaven.

So don’t be sad rejoice in the knowledge that we will be reunited

where we will never have to part again in Heaven.
