Today, is the start of a new day for 2012. Celebrating the new year is different this year. Though I am thankful and grateful to God that my family and relatives were spared from the devastating flash flood in the Philippines (Storm Washi/Bagyong Sendong), my thoughts are for my friends who suffered tremendously. It's been two weeks and I know, it is hard for them to move on knowing they lost everything. Worst was losing the members of the family and there is no closure because they are missing. How do you console a friend who lost three loveones? It is hard to be jolly when I know some of my friends are bleeding in anguish for the loss of their daugters, sons, grandchildren, husband, niece, nephew, uncles with family, parents and relatives. The truth is painful to understand but, I know that in God's time, their hearts will find peace and understanding. May God give us the strength to hurdle the trials in 2012. Have a blessed New Year everyone.
I planted a little rosebush and tended it with care.
It's buds began to blossom, it's sweet fragrance filled the air.
But when winter came it withered, the petals drooped and fell to the ground.
My heart sank as it faded, but I'd forgotten who had made it
And he said, Roses will bloom again.
Just wait and see
Don't mourn what might have been
Only God knows how and when
But, roses will bloom again.
Louis was his only sweetheart
A loving wife for forty years
They cherished every day they had
And held the memories dear
He never dreamed he'd have to bury her
And go home to live alone
When he layed his love to rest
He looked to heaven and tried his best.
To believe that roses will bloom again
Just wait and see
Dont mourn what might have been
Only God knows how and when
But, roses will bloom again.
The precious rose of sharon
Broken and bruised in cruel shame
Stained the cross of calvary
So that men might be saved.
Satan cheered as he died
While Mary and the others cried
And God raised him up from deaths scene
And kept a promise only he could keep.
Roses will bloom again, just wait and see
Don't mourn what might have been
Only God knows how and when
But, roses will bloom again.
