I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die.’” John 11:25-26
My life was beautiful, for as long as it lasted, but the journey of my life has come to an abrupt end. It is my prayer that each of you will understand that God lent me to my family only for a little while, so that you could nurture and love me. When God decided that my time on this side was over, he reclaimed the gift that he lent to you. Don’t be angry with God for my brief stay on earth. Some things in life are impossible for mankind to understand, and my early departure is just one of those things. My spirit has gone back to the maker of mankind. Remember all the love and laughter I shared with each of you. Use that to comfort your hearts when you start to miss me.
