GREATLY EXAGERATED

This is an unusual journey,today, so try to follow my thoughts closely......


As many of you know,this past Valentine's Day,another dear friend of mine, went home to be with the Lord. I'm okay with it, but here at the beach,I'm having what I would call a "down day", because I'm already missing Bill, and knowing that I won't be able to be at the funeral, for Lynn.
Well, God always comes through for me, and my simple thought process, and today was no exception! It's unusual for me to be weepy. but I was, all afternoon, so after a telephone prayer with Kay,I sat down to watch the old black and white of "The Story Of Mark Twain". Towards the end of the movie, when Samuel Clemmons dies, his daughter is weeping by his bedside. In the movie, the ghost of Samuel Clemens,(aka Mark Twain), walks over to his daughter's side, and gently touches her on her shoulder,and even though she can't see or hear him, he says:
"What you look upon as my death, has been greatly exagerated"!
Well, when I heard those words, my whole countenance changed........ I could almost imagine my friend above, asking God to send these words to me, to ease my heart ache.
I'm pretty sure God had already thought of them anyway, because he knew my eyes would dry up right off the bat..............
And that's what He wanted!
Isn't He creative?
