haven been blogging faithfully it seemed to be. anyway,tomorrow's physics and i cant stop myself from failing. so,i came online. haha. heard of the news that aunty pearl has passed away... this is how fragile life can be and it frightens me sometimes... dumbfounded,i dont know what to say...
"O Lord of life,
we sorrow over the departing of a loved one, whom You have called Home to rest. Our hearts are heavy and stricken with pain, but we submit to Your holy and perfect will. In our sorrow we know that You have a part; for we have not a High Priest who cannot be touched with the feelings of our infirmities. We thank You that in Jesus although we sorrow,yet we are not as those who have no hope. So even in death we have life everlasting.
Father in Heaven, comfort those who are overcome with grief just now, with Your own words of comfort, that, to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord. Impress on our minds that our parting is but for a season, for in Christ we shall shortly meet again. Teach us this great truth, that death is but a door to the everlasting Home prepared for those who love the Lord. Thanks be unto God who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. In His blessed name we pray,
Amen."
