I add my prayers, especially for the peace and comfort of your family. It’s hard to lose a mother, only made a little easier to know they are with the Lord and joyful beyond description. I always like the way one of our pastors described the party that takes place in Heaven when a soul comes home. I wish I could remember the scripture he cited, but it gave me comfort.
My condolences and prayers for your family.
Prayers for you. I lost my Mom recently, and it’s an incredibly hard time. Bless your whole family.
Amen. May she be forever blessed, and may those who mourn her be consoled.
Blessed Father,of all the people who loved your servant Cora, you loved her best. Thank you for taking her back to your infinite heart to rest in peace and joy for all time. We are comforted, Lord, because we know she is safe, happy, and well, and that we will see her again.
Prayers for your Mother and may the Holy Spirit comfort her family and friends still here.
Mothers are special in God’s eyes...Please rest in that knowledge...
Eternal rest grant unto her, Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace
So sorry to hear this.
Prayers for all of you.
My condolences on your loss.
sorry for your loss
I am sad for the passing of your mother. God bless her, and may she be remembered for the beautiful things she meant to your family.
Prayers for your mom and you and your family. May God Bless you all.
I lost my Dad in 2003, and I still find myself drifting off to happy memories. The smell of his oily work shirt and Old Spice, his cup of hot coffee that seemed to always be in his hands, the roughness of his five-o’clock shadow, his size 12 shoes that looked like clown shoes on my small feet, the piggyback rides. But when exploring that gallery of my mind, I start to drift of to sadness, knowing my own little boy will not get to know his Grandpa, and how much I miss him myself.
But you know what gets me past those sad times, and I am having one right now as I write this, it is knowing of Gods promise that for ALL who call on him for salvation, that this life is not the end, but just a small punctuation mark on the first page of a book yet to be written.
I will see Dad again, I am certain of that, and the reunion will be beyond joyous. And he is not looking down with sadness, and your Mom is not looking down on you grieving? No. They are in Heaven, and its wonderfulness is beyond explanation, and they are so looking forward to the day they can welcome us Home. Yes, they are the ones who are Home.
I heard it said once that, - “as a Christian, the day I die will be the best day I’ve ever lived. But it won’t be the best I will ever live.”
Prayers to you my friend.
The loss of a mom is very hard.
I will pray for the repose of her soul.
Yes. This is very hard.
Thank you all for your prayers. They do help.
sorry for your loss...our prayers are with you and your family and Mom.
I’m sorry for your loss. Prayers up.
Prayers for YOUR Mom’s soul (which I am sure is secure) and you and your family.
I’m so sorry. Losing my Mother was very difficult. I will pray for her, and for you.
