\"\"<\/a>
\nI just got a call from my best friend and roommate Matt<\/a>.
\nHis father passed away sometime tonight.
\nI don’t have any details, Matt didn’t know anything when he called, other than that Tom (his dad) was found in his truck sometime this evening, already gone to glory.
\nAs you may recall, Matt’s fiance, my sister passed away March 21, last year. So this is a huge blow to his family and mine.
\nTom leaves behind his wife Sue.
\nAs well as sons Paul of Dallas, Tim and wife Amber of Rowlett, Aaron<\/span> and wife Keri of Cedar Hill and Matt of Waxahachie. He also leaves behind six grandchildren and one grandson.
\nPlease pray urgently for the Lehmann family and our family.

Home Free<\/em> – Wayne Watson
\nI’m trying hard not to think you unkind
\nBut Heavenly Father If you know my heart
\nSurely you can read my mind
\nGood people underneath the sea of grief
\nSome get up and walk away
\nSome will find ultimate relief<\/p>\n

Home Free, eventually
\nAt the ultimate healing we will be
\nHome Free Home Free, oh I’ve got a feeling
\nAt the ultimate healing
\nWe will be Home Free<\/p>\n

Out in the corridors we pray for life
\nA mother for her baby, A husband for his wife
\nSometimes the good die young
\nIt’s sad but true
\nAnd while we pray for one more heartbeat
\nThe real comfort is with you<\/p>\n

You know pain has little mercy
\nAnd suffering’s no respecter of age, of race or position
\nI know every prayer gets answered
\nBut the hardest one to pray is slow to come
\nOh Lord, not mine, but Your will be done<\/p>\n

Beautiful Road<\/em> – Wayne Watson
\nIf I had my way, I must admit
\nIf I called every play of the game
\nI’d pray for good times, blue ky and sunshine
\nAnd I’d avoid with a passion any pain
\nBut with every blow from an engry wind<\/p>\n

And with every dark shadow that falls
\nThere’s a better view up around the bend
\nWhere this puzzle makes some sense after all<\/p>\n

Mistakes and misfortunes will come and go
\nFor you to try and still fail is no disgrace
\nSometimes a rough and rocky road
\nIs gonna take you to a beautiful place<\/p>\n

Is there anyone out there looking back through you rfaith
\nThat can deny that your Father knows what’s best
\nOh but at the time and place for the life of you
\nYou saw no reason, no good for the test
\nBut now remembering as you watched His hand
\nPut the color to your black and white dreams
\nMaybe one more time past what you can see
\nOh the trouble of the moment ain’t as bad as it seems<\/p>\n

Sometimes the unspoiled beauty of the wisdom of God
\nIs lying there in the wilderness
\nUp there beyond the easy reach
\nWhere the journey takes a little more,
\njust a little more faith I guess<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
