Such a devastating loss for our family and friends! In this dark hour of deep sorrow, we have a Saviour who knows how to heal our broken hearts and bind up our wounds. He is closest to us when the storm of grief assails us fiercely. Worthy is the Lamb that was slain who will destroy our last enemy.....death! Praise God for the blessed hope found in Revelation 21:3,4. May we find comfort, strength and bright hope for each day by resting in Jesus arms. Amen.

I was saddened to hear about the passing of Arthur. I have known him for many years. I realize that God is in control of all things. Arthur always showed a great spirit. We’re going to all face the true and living God. It’s time to get our house and hearts in order. Love won’t stop here, but we must continue to love each other. Only God can give us this love. Veola Thomas . Also known as “Tut”. Let’s keep loving and praying to see God in peace.

For I pray for Aunt Ressie and others in my circle of family and friends who are grieving, Father God of compassion I reach out to you for comfort and strength. Fill us with you joy, peace and hope.
Help us Lord, I Pray In The Name of Jesus. Amen
