Pardon me

 

Precious in the sight of the LORD 
       is the death of his saints. Psalm 116: 15
Good afternoon, the above scripture was placed in the obituary of Irene so I figured I would share it with you. Thank you to those who sent their condolences and through those messages I read two things that I think fit the young lady perfectly.  One person said ”she was too good for earth and God needed her for someting far greater!” while someone else said that something to the effect that god had given us a new angel to watch over us”. Both of these statements were true and I think it’s those types of words that families need to hear while they mourn over a loved on.

I sat in the funeral today cracking up in my mind. I refused to let the sad songs, and just the sorrow of it all bring me down to the ground. I won’t front it almost did as the man sang his song about God coming to take her home, I mean she was so young, only 23. But what kept me smiling and kept me laughing was her sense of humor. Like if she was right next to me at the funeral. She would be poised, sad, but she’d have a joke here, a laugh there, and by the time we got outside she would be complaining about how hot it was. So I liked the scripture that they used, I liked the message that they gave. None of us know what awaits us after we leave here but just in case there is a hell we need to get right with god. Peace and Grace be unto you!

Don’t cry, I’m in God’s keeping We’ll meet again someday!

    I didn’t know her. I can only say that her death is the truest testament to who she must be/have been. GOOD. The good always die young. ALWAYS.
