As mentioned in a recent blog we have had several deaths recently. Auntie Mary's funeral is this morning. She lived to be 102 years old. For many years she was the organist at The Hurst Methodist Church in Kingsley. She stayed active until her death and had been to a meeting on the Tuesday before she died. She died peacefully in her sleep. We will miss her as she knew such a lot and was always interested in everyone and could tell us all we needed to know.
In heavenly love abiding,
No change my heart shall fear;
And safe is such confiding;
For nothing changes here;
The storm may roar without me,
My heart may low be laid;
But God is round about me,
And can I be dismayed?
Wherever He may guide me,
No want shall turn me back;
My Shepherd is beside me,
And nothing can I lack;
His wisdom ever waketh,
His sight is never dim;
He knows the way He taketh,
And I will walk with Him.
Green pastures are before me,
Which yet I have not seen'
Bright skies will soon be o'er me,
Where the dark clouds have been.
My hope I cannot measure,
My path to life is free;
My Saviour has my treasure,
And He will walk with me.
(Anna Laetitia Waring 1820-1910)
