Sweetly Resting

On Sunday, March 16 at 3:30 a.m. my mom saw the glorious face of her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Our family has been deeply touched by the love and kindness shown to us during this time of sorrow. Although we grieve our loss here on earth, we rejoice that mom is now singing praises and sitting at her Father's feet.

The memorial service this afternoon was beautiful. Pastor Bob preached just as she had requested several years ago by not glorifying her life but telling of the wonderful Savior she had served and worshiped for more than half her life. As Pastor Bob reminded us this afternoon from Psalm 17:15, she has seen the likeness of her Savior's face.

It is a comfort to know that she no longer struggles when she takes a breath and that all the things of this world for her has now passed away. She has seen his glory and is sweetly resting in the home that God prepared for her.
