COMING BACK TO LIFE




Isaac would tell you
THINK AGAIN, DON'T GIVE UP!
If you are struggling with life
and are thinking
I can't do this, it is not worth it.

YOU LIFE IS WORTH IT!
YOU HAVE VALUE!
YOU ARE LOVED MORE
THAN YOU WILL EVER KNOW!!!

It is true, life isn't always easy,
There will always be challenges,
However, there will also be fun,
joy, new adventures, love and laughter.


 

SITUATIONS ARE TEMPORARY,
Change isn't always easy
But getting help
And feeling better
makes it all worthwhile
Talk to someone

If You Need Help,
Someone to Talk to
NOW

PLEASE CALL
1-800-273-TALK (8255)

"Hold Fast" lyrics by Mercy Me

Lyrics  that speak for us the thoughts we all have asked...

To everyone who's hurting
To those who've had enough
To all the undeserving
That should cover all of us
Please do not let go
I promise there is hope

Hold fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is His grasp, So hold fast

Will this season ever pass?
Can we stop this ride?
Will we see the sun at last?
Or could this be our lot in life?
Please do not let go
I promise you there's hope 

Hold fast
Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is His grasp. So hold fast

You may think you're all alone
And there's no way that anyone could know
What you're going through
But if you only hear one thing
Just understand that we are all the same
Searching for the truth
The truth of what we're soon to face
Unless someone comes to take our place
Is there anyone?
All we want is to be free
Free from our captivity, Lord
Here He comes Hold fast

Help is on the way
Hold fast
He's come to save the day
What I've learned in my life
One thing greater than my strife
Is his grasp
So hold fast...
Hold Fast

Isaac "IRISH"

We miss you everyday and now the holidays are here, we miss your laughter, your hugs, thoughtfulness and mischief

 The world is a different
place without you,
A better place because
You were here...

Dear Isaac,

It has been almost 5 years
and not a day goes by without
thoughts of you.
We still cannot believe it.
It seems so unreal.
Feels like you are still with us at times
We remember You as
A life so full potential
Promise, and laughter...
Strength and determination.

We wish one moment with you,
So we send it up in a prayer
A toast, to let you know
The times we miss you most... 
You will always be loved so much! You made a choice and left us behind to carry on...
We wish you peace as we
Try to make our own.

You were here on earth for
just over 17 years...
You will never be forgotten,
You are part of us,
Within our hearts,
Our memories 
And a thread of our hope
for the future
We shall celebrate your life
and our own. 
We love you

Mom, Your Family
and Friends

    Because Isaac Lived
  
You can shed tears that
He is gone
Or you can smile
Because He lived,
    
You can close your eyes and
pray that he will come back,
Or you can open your eyes
and see all that he has left. 

   Your heart can be empty
Because you can't see him
Or you can be full
of the love that you shared,
    
You can turn your back
on tomorrow and
Live yesterday,
Or you can be happy
For tomorrow because
Of yesterday.

You can remember him
and only that he is gone
Or you can cherish his memory
and let it live on.

You can cry and close
your mind
Be empty and turn your back,
Or you can do
What he would want:
Smile, open your eyes,
Love and go on 

    

I found the station below uplifting. especially in those long nights...
