God Gave Me An Angel

Today, God gave me an Angel and I thought God knew that I didn’t want an Angel at this time. I did not want dark clouds to replace “my Sun and my Stars”. I had closed my eyes and memorized the feeling of your precious hand held tightly in mine; I wanted to hold you close to me just one more time.
I wanted to lay my head on your shoulder and once again tell you how much I loved you and know that you would hear. I wanted to look into your eyes just one more time and feel the love of you in my heart as I heard your unspoken words of love reach out to me.
I wanted to feel your love for me flow from your heart and promise to you once more that you will always be a part of me and I will always hold on to my memories of you! I wanted to hold you in my arms just one more time and I knew if I could, I would never again let you go!
But as I lifted my head and looked up toward heaven, I knew deep within my heart that.....
Today God gave me an Angel!
It was then I realized that I could never again hold you in my arms but I would forever hold you in my heart! It was then I realized that dark clouds can never replace my sun and stars because you now are “My Sun and Stars”. It was then I realized that I will forever have the memories of the warmth of your precious hand in mine.
It was then when I realized that I will always carry my memories of you as the pictures God placed within my heart to remain with me forever. It was then I realized that you will now always hear me when I say “I Love You!”
I know now that.....
You will forever hold me in your arms and you will never let me go,
And I will forever hold you in my heart, as I gently and quietly let you go, because....
Today God Gave Me An Angel!
