Grandma

There’s a peace I’ve come to know...

Though my heart and flesh may fail

There’s an anchor for my soul

I can say, “it is well”

Jesus has overcome

And the grave is overwhelmed

The victory is won

He is risen from the dead

I will rise when He calls my name

No more sorrow, no more pain

I will rise on eagles wings

Before my God, fall on my knees

And riseI will rise

There’s a day that’s drawing near

When this darkness breaks to light

And the shadows disappear

And my faith shall be my eyes

And I hear the voice of many angels sing, “worthy is the Lamb”

And I hear the cry of every longing heart, “worthy is the Lamb

Some would say Heather Bliss' journey ended this morning at 7:10. I would say her journey just began. This morning at 7:10 she was finally free from all of the pain and sickness she was battling...she was with Jesus...she had defeated the cancer.


Heather and I were discussing what her first few hours there must have been like. To here the voices of all those angels singing worthy is the lamb. To not only feel Jesus' presence but to be there with him...that is something we all anticipate, and here she was experiencing it.

In the song above, I think it captures maybe what heaven will be like. THis is probably smething like what she was experienceing. When it states I will rise when he callls my name.. to think he specifically called her by name. ANd at that point she was perfect again.

That part that hit me the most is when it ends with all the angels were singing worhty is the lamb. What an amazing experience.

I will miss my grandma but I am so excited for where she is now. SHe has been such a role model with her faith and life in general. When we were sharing memories of her, it was neat to see how many lives she has impacted. She has shown me I need to be more intentional with my faith and to love others with the love of Jesuss

I love you Grandma

In loving memory
