Derene and I want to bless you on this Passover / First Fruits / Easter / Resurrection weekend!

A friend and ELIJAH LIST subscriber sent this to me today.

I have read it before and in fact, some version of this was part of our wedding ceremony, nearly 24 years ago. It is a little "off the beaten path" of what we normally publish on the Elijah List. . .

But I felt it would bless you!

Let us continue to pray for the PEACE OF JERUSALEM!

-- PEACE to ALL people groups!

Blessings!

"I WISH YOU ENOUGH"

(Author Unknown)

Recently, I overheard a father & daughter in their last moments together. They had announced her plane's departure and standing near the security gate, they hugged and he said, "I love you. I wish you enough."

She said, "Daddy, our life together has been more than enough. Your love is all I ever needed. I wish you enough, too, Daddy." They kissed and she left.

He walked over toward the window where I was seated. Standing there I could see he wanted and needed to cry. I tried not to intrude on his privacy, but he welcomed me in by asking, "Did you ever say goodbye to someone knowing it would be forever???"

"Yes, I have," I replied. Saying that brought back memories I had of expressing my love and appreciation for all my Dad had done for me. Recognizing that his days were limited, I took the time to tell him face to face how much he meant to me. So I knew what this man was experiencing . . .

"Forgive me for asking, but why is this a forever goodbye?" I asked.

"I am old, and she lives much too far away. I have challenges ahead, and the reality is, her next trip back will be for my funeral," he said.

"When you were saying good-bye I heard you say, 'I wish you enough.' May I ask what that means???"

He began to smile. "That's a wish that has been handed down from other generations. My parents used to say it to everyone." He paused for a moment, and looking up as if trying to remember it in detail, he smiled even more. . .

"When we said, 'I wish you enough', we were wanting the other person to have a life filled with enough good things to sustain them," he continued and then turning toward me, he shared the following as if he were reciting it from memory. . .

". . . I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish you enough "Hello's" to get you through the final "Good-bye".

He then began to sob and walked away.

My friends and loved ones, I wish you ENOUGH!!!
