Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.~ Smith Funeral Home of Mississippi
Sissy,
This is so unreal. You'll forever hold a special place in my heart. I miss you so much! Love you lots my little big sister.~ Cynara Ballard Oakland, CA
To the family my condolences for your loss. Soon, sickness, pain, death and sorrow will be no more (Rev. 21:4). Jesus speaks of a resurrection in John 5:28,29 When those in the memorial tomb will hear his voice and come out.
I truly feel for your loss. This is such a difficult time. There isn't much that can soothe your pain, but you may find some comfort in the words of Psalms 9:9 which reads: "Jehovah will become a secure refuge for the oppressed, A secure refuge in times of distress."
Yes, our Loving God can help if we allow him to. He also has made the SURE promise of a resurrection right here on earth, when it is restored to a Paradise (Acts 24:15; Psalms 37:9-11,29).
No, not just a dream, but for a certainty he will do it, for Isaiah 55:11 shows us that everything he says, he accomplishes without fail.
