No Tears in Heaven
by Kathie Iselin © fromPapaGod.com
It was summer and I was vacationing in Eagle River, Wisconsin.
I'd been invited to Saint Germain's Evi Free Church but because it was thirty minutes away from the cabin, I hadn't gone. Until one Sunday morning I felt compelled to make the drive.
Unknown to me, God was also guiding someone else to this same service. Her name was Mary, and like me she felt herself being lead to attend.
Obviously God had a plan, for He proceeded to sit Mary in front of me, and prompted the minister, to ask if anyone had a prayer request. Something I learned later, he didn't do every Sunday.
Mary stood and asked for healing for her brother John and his wife, Judy. Whose nineteen year old son, Matthew, had recently died of a heart attack.
Immediately, I knew why God had brought Mary and I together. For He'd just blessed me with two new poems. Entitled, I Know Your Sorrow and No Tears in Heaven. Needless to say I couldn't wait to share them.
After the service; I introduced myself explaining about the poems, and how I believed that they were intended for John and Judy. I hoped she'd be receptive to the idea and allow me to send them.
It's always a step of faith whenever God has me approaching people I've never met. Which by the way, is 90% of my ministry and the reason for so many great testimonials. Thankfully, no one's hauled me off to the looney bin for sharing these "Love Letters from the Lord."
No need to worry though, Mary was as excited as I was. Quickly writing addresses and then informing me, that John and Judy were staying at a nearby resort.
After she'd gone, the more I thought about it, the more I felt rather than sending them by mail, I should go in person. Back inside the church in search of a phone book, not knowing where to look, I asked the first person I saw. Only Papa God could connect me with the previous owner of that resort! Now not only did I have an address, but directions as well.
Yet; it meant going out of my comfort zone. But when you chose to be obedient, the reward is so worth it! Not only did John and Judy receive the comfort they so desperately needed. God then ministered to my heart through their story, which left me with a euphoric high that lasted days!
It wasn't until John shared the following information, that I realized just how significant and specific each Scripture is to their respective poem.
After their son's death, John would find himself waking every morning for the next seven days, at exactly 3:16 am. What an awesome God Sighting. For they interpreted this as a personal message, finding great comfort in the Bible verse John 3:16, as a means of letting them know, Matthew was safe in Heaven.
Papa made His Presence known that day, erasing any doubt. Indeed; He made it quite clear to John and Judy. Not only was their son in heaven, but He'd just sent them a Love Letter, confirming it again! For the supportive Scripture for No Tears in Heaven is John 3:16. Wow!

No Tears In Heaven
by Kathie Iselin © fromPapaGod.com
When your loved one passes through the gate...
It is always more difficult for those who wait.
And while there are no tears in heaven, no need to ever cry...
Those left on earth feel lost and often wonder why?
But God's loving Presence is always very near...
He can take your sorrow and make it disappear.
He can heal the saddest heart - with His precious Love...
For there's no greater power - then the One who reigns above.
"For God so loved the world, that He gave His only
begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him
should not perish, but have everlasting life."
John 3:16 KJV
"I tell you the truth, he who believes
has everlasting life."
John 6:47 NIV
I Feel Your Sorrow
by Kathie Iselin © fromPapaGod.com
When death takes a precious loved one away from you...
You're devastated and unsure of what to do.
I know and understand exactly how you feel...
For I have felt that heartache and it's hard to heal.
I've seen your tears and heard your prayers, so come to Me...
Let Me gather you close, and hold you tenderly.
For I feel your sorrow and understand your loss...
Because it was My Son who died upon the cross.
"This is how God showed His love among us;
He sent His one and only Son into the world
that we might live through Him."
1 John 4:9 NIV
Psalm 43:4 CEV
