From a very good friend of Teresa (Arasina):
"Got the terrible news I'd been half expecting. Early this morning Teresa (arasina @Free Republic) has passed on to be with the Lord due to complications with what was an acute case of cystic fibrosis. Her lungs simply would not respond. Even with her oxygen machine she could not quite get enough oxygen. All that could be done at that point was sedation. On Saturday I'd called but she immediately said she couldn't speak. Yesterday I regrettably didn't reach out...and this AM Teresa's niece left the message of the bad news. The only solace I have is that I know she is with the Lord. I prayed for mercy and relief, and He fulfilled that request.
Red -- if you could -- please post Teresa's FR obit. She was 63, a native of Indianapolis, a Christian woman of good cheer, loved people, FR, all that was good and right. Most importantly, she loves Jesus and believed in the Gospel with all her heart.
Thank you, brutha,
Jim"
There is beauty both in sunrise and sunset, sing of it, and glorify the Lord. Like the nightingale, pour forth thy notes at all hours. Believe that the night is as useful as the day. The dews of grace fall heavily in the night of sorrow. The stars of promise shine forth gloriously amid the darkness of grief. Continue thy service under all changes. If in the day thy watchword be labour, at night exchange it for watch. Every hour has its duty, do thou continue in thy calling as the Lord's servant until He shall suddenly appear in His glory. My soul, thine evening of old age and death is drawing near, dread it not, for it is part of the day; and the Lord has said, "I will cover him all the day long." Charles H. Spurgeon
Belated ping.
Hat tip to Oddlane who gave the “did you see this” alert.
Sad news indeed.
Thanks.
No, I didn’t see it. She was great!
RIP Arasina.
:(
Prayers to be offered.
Thank you I will pass that on to the gentlemen who asked me to post the notice of her passing.
I sent him a fresh link so he could view all of the recent posts.
God Bless
You posted three years ago, thank you; bears repeating today: // I Thess 4: 13 But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. 14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. // [Eph 2:12, without hope, without God in the world]
