Some goodbyes leave paw prints that never fade.

This poem is a tribute to our beloved German Shepherd, whose loyalty, quiet love, and faithful companionship filled our lives with joy. Looking back, I wish I had recognized the depth of your silent struggle before it was time to say goodbye.

Though you are gone, you will always remain in our hearts. Until we meet again, you are deeply loved and dearly missed.

Sometimes God calls us into the storm—not to abandon us, but to teach us where real faith is found. This poem reflects the journey from confidence, to fear, to sinking, and finally to discovering that Christ's hand is stronger than every wave. When we stop reaching for the safety of the boat and take hold of Him, we find peace beyond the storm.

"His hand in mine changed everything."

‍ ‍As I held her there in Daddy's chair, God spoke to my heart.

Not with words heard by the ear; we weren't that far apart.

You are much like her to me so this I'll tell you true.

The hurt and pain that's in your life I'll faithfully remove.

​ I understand your anger, hurt, and disappointment too.

I love you more than you love her.

Don't you think I do?

For this year so weary, worn
All the strife and darkened storm
When the night is darker still
Hoping morn will soon reveal
Take a moment to reflect
The light, the dark, will keep in check
