Memories

 I couldn't let today go without acknowledging what today was....Pam left 2 years ago to be with Jesus.

That's where she lived her whole life to be and I wouldn't wish her back now for anything.

I miss her so much and I think of her a lot! 

Whether you are resting or working with the new arrivals there or sitting at Jesus' feet soaking up everything like a sponge, I can see the twinkle in your eye and the smile on your face and a knowing look that beams and tells me Lisa its everything that it says it is and MORE!

Heaven is more precious to me this year than last and hopefully I'm walking closer to Jesus everyday!

She was my Paul and I was her Timothy. Goodness how much I miss racing to find this scripture first or last or just talking about what the word was saying to us ! Her friendship was so special and like none other! I still find myself praying for her family and sometimes in the morning on the way to work, her nephew Hayden is waiting at the bus stop and I pray for his salvation, remembering Pam led John to the Lord before she passed away and little Lily, I hope and pray someday she gives her heart to the Lord so her and Pam can share a room together again! I think her mom is in the nursing home now, I pray for Dimple I know in her heart she misses Pam so much and one day Jesus will come for her and they'll be together again! Deidre wrote such a beautiful post about her. That girl can write, I was hanging on e.v.e.r.y. word ! She's really my only connection left to remember Pam by here, at work when I go in where her desk was, its gone and there is no resemblance that she was ever there but in our hearts she's very much still there, being a help to everyone that needed it !

I am reminded of a quote by G. Campbell Morgan, (I think....) it goes something like this..
'You can bury the workman......but not the work for it continues'

This is so true, the lives she invested in lives on and is different because she was in them  Paul challenged Timothy, for those things he saw him do to continue them.....Pam was charging me and I didn't even realize it !

Looking forward to Heaven because of Jesus but somehow I just know someone is saving me the best seat just because she knows I want it !

Memories are the sweetest and best when shared with a tear and a laugh and we both did a lot of that!

Pam's graduation date 11/2/09. Thanks for making the grade and letting me cheat off of your paper!
Looking forward to seeing you in glory !

Oh this is so good!! What a wonderful way to remember Pam! My life was touched by Pam as well. She was such a blessing and an inspiration to so many. My daughter thought the world of her and still talks about her. She was all about doing the Father's business and pointed others to Christ. May we remember her by following her lead and her example.
Miss seeing you!!!
