Spoken Thoughts

Some thoughts are meant to be spoken

Give Me My Roses

by

in

While I am still here to enjoy them before I am gone, it will be too late.


Please give me my roses while I am still in your midst because I don’t know the day or time when I will leave you behind,
Let me enjoy their smell and beauty over time as they remind me of your love and kindness,
Could you show me your care while I see it?
Please don’t wait until I am dead and gone to express your care when it no longer means anything to me.
Speak life over me while I am here
Please don’t wait until I am gone to tell me how much I meant to you and how much you will miss the time we shared.
Cause I have a feeling I will not be able to hear it.
Show your love while I am still in your presence, not the fake love often portrayed throughout the homegoing service.
I am here now, so don’t take this moment for granted. Today might be the last day I share this space with you, so give me my roses while I am near.
Don’t wait until God calls me home and I completely disappear before you share how much I meant to you.
