A Stranger Here Alone
Posted by
Lord, I’m a stranger here alone;
Earth no true comforts can afford:
Yet, absent from my dearest One,
My soul delights to cry, my Lord!
Jesus, my Lord, my only love,
Possess my soul, nor thence depart:
Grant me kind visits, heavenly dove,
My God shall then have all my heart.
–From the Diary of David Brainerd from Jonathan Edwards Life of Brainerd and his diary, Volume 7 of Edwards Works.

Death is Not Dying
Rachel Barkey (nee Sawer) went home to her Lord on July 2, 2009 at 37 years of age. Rachel is survived by her husband Neil and her children Quinn and Kate, parents Ben and Cathy Sawer, brother David (Johanna) Sawer and sister Andrea Sawer.
But for Rachel the essence of life was found in her relationship with God through Jesus. And that's why Rachel was convinced that death is not dying.
