In honor of my father...

Dear Daddy,

Today is the day when the living are supposed to remember those who have passed on. I still find it difficult to comprehend that you are no longer here with me. Perhaps because it is this hope that is in my heart that you aren't really gone. I just won't be able to see you for a long, long while... The happy part is now I have two fathers watching over us. My Heavenly Father and you. I often wonder what it's like to be where you are. Somehow death is no longer as fearful as before because someday it will be a long awaited reunion. In the meantime, I have my two kids, whom you love dearly, to pour the same love and care you have lavished upon me. They often ask about you and have fond memories of you. We miss you so much and all that is left to do is IMAGINE...

with much love and affection, 
mai

this video is dedicated to the most wonderful earthly father I have ever known who is now with my most awesome Heavenly Father:



I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By Your side
I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When Your face
Is before me
I can only imagine

{Chorus}:
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for You Jesus or in awe of You be still
Will I stand in Your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son
I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine
