Don't grieve for me for now I'm free, I'm following the path God laid for me I took his hand when I heard him call, I turned my back and left it all I could not stay another day, To laugh, to love, to work or play Tasks left undone must stay that way, I've found that peace at the close of day If my parting has left a void, Then fill it with remembered joy A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss, Ah yes, these things I too will miss Be not burdened with times of sorrow, I wish for you the sunshine of tomorrow My life's been full, I've savored much, Good friends, good times, my loved one's touch If my time seemed all too brief, Don't lengthen it now with undue grief Lift up your heart, rejoice with me, God wanted me now, He set me free. Sending Blessed Assurance to Dalton Hendley and the entire Hendley Family! Rev. TaJuana Spencer-Gentry, Pastor Jerusalem Missionary Baptist Church Olustee, Florida

To the Hensley Family: We are sorry to hear about the recent passing of Michelle Hensley. Our deepest thoughts and prayers go out to the entire family, and friends of the family during this time of great sadness. All can understand the hardship that you are dealing with since we have all loss someone in death. Indeed this is s time where words of love and support will be needed by all. Yes the family members and friends will be there to get you through this difficult time. May you also remember that God will also be there for you. As the scriptures reveal, God is a God of tender mercy and comfort.(2 Corinthians 1:3-4) God's great mercy can be seen by this loving promise that He has made known to the Hensley Family, and other families of the earth who have loss anyone in death. The comforting promise is recorded at John 5:28-29. In there're verses, God tells us that He would soon cause a calling to go forth to those in the grave to stand up in life again. Did you know that from the reading of these verses, that God is giving us His personal guarantee that the restoring of life for billions upon billions of people would take place worldwide? To some this promised arrangement may seem impossible. But we must remember that God is the source of life for all created things. (Psalm 36:9) Yes even if a person dies, God has the power and the desire to make that person whole again.(Job 14:14-15) Our Creator wants all to have strong faith in this promise, so God has taken the time to preserve nine accounts in the Bible that speaks about the grand resurrection blessing soon to take place earth wide. Here just one such example that is recorded at Acts 9:36-42. I hope that all will get a chance to see how these verses apply to Michelle, and to many others who await their personal. Awakening from their deep sleep of death. In closing we encourage all to please keep this promise of God near your hearts at all times. Always remember that God has given us His personal promise regarding the restoring of life. Yes, when God makes a promise, it becomes reality. For it is impossible for God to lie. (Titus 1:2)
