She’s in Jesus’s arms now - the best place to be in the universe.

Glory to God.

Prayers up for her family. Such a terrible loss, but such a blessing to know she’s not lost for eternity. God bless her and her family.

A beautiful young girl joined my Parent’s Southern Baptist Church. She must have been popular as she was homecoming queen not once but twice at her college.

Two weeks later, she was killed when a jeep she and several friends were riding, turned over.

Two weeks after her funeral, her parents joined the church too.

Thanks for sharing. Wow. Were the parents saved before she died?

[yarddog]

I don’t think they were saved but can’t say for sure.

I remember Mother saying that they wanted to see her again. That was why they were joining. That would indicate they were not.

Earlier in the day before she and her group left their homes, Harmening texted her friends a Bible verse, and told them, “We are like a wisp of smoke. We are only here for a moment and it’s not about us. Life is not about us. It’s about God, who is eternal, so I want to dedicate the one moment I’m here completely and entirely to him.

And I feel a twinge of personal shame with a testimony such as this. May my life similarly be poured out as a fragrant drink offering.

Interesting. So their tragedy was something God truly used for the good in that they are now closer to Christ than they were before her death.

God is truly great in His mysterious ways.

Her testimony will be reaching thousands. Her unwavering love for Jesus should give all believers a sense of peace about their own future in Christ.

[DoughtyOne]

That’s how it should be, but I got the impression the paper was trying to wallow in the irony a bit too much.

Bad things happen to good people. I don’t think this one has anything to worry about when it comes to the final judgment.

God will be there for her.

Lord Jesus Christ,

Rest the soul of Thy servant Sarah.

Rest the souls of all the pilgrims that died and restore the health of the injured.

To Thy greater glory forever, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen.

I am Sarah’s dad. My wife has been writing at https://listeningtohim.wordpress.com/ and some of her posts have Sarah’s writing in them. A couple that do are https://listeningtohim.wordpress.com/2017/07/05/tempted-in-every-way/ and https://listeningtohim.wordpress.com/2017/07/15/swallowed-up-by-life/ - I think there are probably some more, too.
