She Is Gone You can shed tears that she is gone Or you can smile because she has lived You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her Or you can be full of love that you shared You can turn your back on tomorrow and live for yesterday Or you can be happy for tomorrow because of yesterday You can remember her and only that she is gone Or you can cherish her memory and let it live on You can cry and close your mind, be empty and turn your back Or you can do what she would want: Smile, open your eyes, love and go on

The color green is a symbol of vegetation -as seen in the scriptures. The color green signifies rest, stability, hope and abundance.

Rest - Psalms 23:2 He makes me lie down in green pastures,; He leads me beside the still waters. The godly person who tastes the goodness of God in all his enjoyment though he may have little of this world's resources. It is still a green pasture. If you want stability in your life check out Psalms 52:8 But I am like a green olive tree in the House of God. I trust in the loving kindness of God forever and ever. Like the Green Olive Tree I must live a life of thankfulness and holy joy in God. Our duty as living green vegetation -requires us to make the Lord our hope, his fa vor the good we hope, and his power the strength of our hope. Our hope will flourish like the tree that is always green , whose leaves do not wither; they shall be cheerful to themselves and beautiful in the eyes of others. Just remember the color green , this person is fixed and established in the faith and has inward peace and satisfaction. If you want to experience green pastures (rest and contentment) Green Olive trees (inward peace and stability) and yield fruit by being a witness. Your life can be as the color green full of life and yielding good fruit for those around you to see and glorify God in heaven. In the forest of the kingdom of God you want to be cheerful and beautiful in the eyes of others. You can! You can make eternal investments in the economy of Heaven. Your life can be like the color green . When you know that person is going through the scorching heat of a fiery trial.

E XCERPTS FROM A SPEECH WRITTEN BY J ODI J ONES

Acknowledgement Perhaps you sent a lovely card or sat quietly in a chair. Perhaps you sent a floral piece, if so, we saw it there. Perhaps you prayed a sincere prayer or came to pay a call. Perhaps you sang a cheerful song, if so, we heard it all. Perhaps you spoke the kindest words, as any friend could say. Perhaps you prepared a tasty dish, or maybe furnished a car. Perhaps you rendered a service unseen, near at hand or from afar. Whatever you did to console our hearts, by word or deed or touch. Whatever was the kindly part, we thank you, oh so very much.
