Ode to a Warrior



Everyday she fought…
Sword of the Spirit in one hand
The Shield of Faith in the other

She was strong and mighty, never fearing her enemy
She fought with the strength of an entire army
Drawing on those that have gone before her

Her body began to weaken, but never her spirit
Her eyes would light up as she began to fight
Willing again to do battle for her family
She never gave up, always knowing and believing in The Promises

She was betrayed in this world…
Her flesh finally giving up

Now her bright blue eyes see the Final Prize
She has fought the good fight
And has been rewarded

She has heard the heartwarming words
“Well done, my good and faithful servant.”

It is our turn now
We must continue her legacy
Never giving up, never turning back, never letting go

We love and miss you Grandma

We will be praying for your family...especially for Linda, as you all adjust to life without Grandma. Love, all the Macks.
