It Is Not Time that Heals, It Is God….

I have heard that 'time is a great healer of pain' and from my experience I am unable to accept that. I rather believe it is God heals and provides the strength to carry on when we lose our nearest and dearest.

Part of me carrying on was enjoying a meal and film with my wife last night, and surely, steadily God is enabling me to carry on.

The coming week is extremely busy for me, I have to wake up at the crack of dawn to catch a train to London for a meeting at the office and then working to anticipate the time i will be away from my desk attending my twin sister's mother-in-law's funeral.


I don't know how I will handle the situation but I feel comforted that I can play a role my twin would have played but also to support my brother-in-law at this difficult time.

Ade (brother-in-law), I know it is so hard and It is a long road, when you face the world alone and it appears there is no one reaches out with a hand for you to hold, but God's love will cause the emptiness you feel today to disappear.

I share this song with you today and dedicate and pay tribute to my brother-in-law: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvhW1Kyxpfw

There's a hero
If you look inside your heart
You don't have to be afraid
Of what you are
There's an answer
If you reach into your soul
And the sorrow that you know
Will melt away

[Chorus:]
And then a hero comes along
With the strength to carry on
And you cast your fears aside
And you know you can survive
So when you feel like hope is gone
Look inside you and be strong
And you'll finally see the truth
That a hero lies in you

It's a long road
When you face the world alone
No one reaches out a hand
For you to hold
You can find love
If you search within yourself
And the emptiness you felt
Will disappear

[Chorus]

Lord knows
Dreams are hard to follow
But don't let anyone
Tear them away
Hold on
There will be tomorrow
In time
You'll find the way

[Chorus]
