Days Gone By

He heals the brokenhearted
and binds up their wounds.
Psalm 147:3
As I sit here in silence cherishing the memories of days gone by I can’t help but long for the chance to experience them once again. As I’ve grown older I have come to realize that the thing that matters the most in life is perhaps the one thing that I took for granted.
After having a relationship with the Heavenly Father, it’s not the money wasted, possessions lost or opportunities missed that I regret the most. It’s the relationships I neglected that weigh heavy on my heart.
There are so many people along the way that had a positive impact on my life and it saddens me when I realize that I never took the time to say Thank you. As time passed and miles separated I never slowed down to express my gratitude for their selfless love and support.
I always thought there would be time to reunite; a time to get together and catch up, but days turned into months, months turned into years, and years slipped away into eternity.
I hope and pray that one day I see you all again in Heaven, but until that day comes I will hold onto to the precious memories of days gone by.
