Fear not my child
Fear not.
Rid yourself of useless anxieties,
There is more that you can do at rest
than you can ever do fretting about.
Let everything that you do
be done out of love
pouring out of a peaceful heart.
It is not how many ideas
that run through your mind
that matters.
It is the way that you believe.
It is the way that you surrender
to everything that is good
which heaven is showering you
in every moment.
Fear not my child
Fear not.
There is no need for you to hurry
nor for your hands to tremble.
Time stops for love
and love alone.
And I want you to enter
the door that leads to forevermore.

Hello, I am a mom. My daughter died this past June. This poem has given me comfort, thru’ the tears I cry for my girl. I loved her so very much with all of my heart. I trust she is now with the Lord. I have put my trust in the Lord that He has enfolded my beautiful daughter, this child of God in His arms. My girl is now safe in the arms of Jesus. Amen.
Dear Kathie, I believe with you that your daughter is indeed in the most loving arms of Jesus! And someday, we will see her again. Be blessed always!

To laugh often and love much; To win the respect of intelligent persons And the affection of children; To earn the approbation of honest critics And to endure the betrayal of false friends; To appreciate beauty; To find the best in others; To give of one s self; To leave the world a little better, Whether by a healthy child, A garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; To have played and laughed with enthusiasm And sung with exultation; To know that even one life has breathed easier Because you have lived This is to have succeeded.
