rest now, Mom

Sat Jun 6, 2009, 5:41 AM
Today, my Mom passed away after a five-year battle with breast cancer. The entire family was there, including her niece and sister who flew all the way from New Zealand, and although she had been awake when she started losing breath, the doctor assured us that she felt no pain because of the high morphine dose she was given.

She was a kind, talented, and caring woman — full of life and eager to live it, and so very loving. Please pray that her next great adventure will be filled with grander and more pleasant things, as it’s nothing less than she deserves. She’s touched and affected so many people’s lives, and asked for nothing but friendship in return.

I am sorry about your mother. I have already said a few prayers for her and your family :hug: I pray that the good Lord will get you all through these trying times and that you may recieve his grace and healing.

In the mean time here is a verse psalm 23 that is often said to comfort those in troubled times.
The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters, he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.
Even though I walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, [a]
I will fear no evil,
for you are with me;
your rod and your staff,
they comfort me.
You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.
Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

And I will love to help out so I am gonna commission you :)

I will send you the details in a note :)

(snugs!) Thanks so much for the kind thoughts and the commission *_* <3 My Mom's a devout Catholic, so this means a lot to her. Will pass on your kind prayers and the verse, thank you so much <3 That passage comforted me a lot during the harder times in my childhood, it's a little eerie and also rejuvenating to encounter it again now.

Going through Notes now! (rolls to Notes section)
