I extend my heartfelt condolences to the Sharp family during this most challenging time in your life. May you find strength in Jesus and support from one another. Your relationship with your Mother has changed. From physical to spiritual and she will always be with you. May this poem give you encouragement as only time can do.

Be Still

Be still like the grass on a melancholy summer day
Be still like desert shrub.

Be calm and you will hear your loved one speak, in the stillness, in the calm, their love resounds.

If you are still, this promise I make, you will hear the voice of your loved one helping you along your way.

God bless you.
