He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.”
Revelation 21:4
She has been the second person I know to die, and first of whom I was actually somewhat close too. She was such a blessing, in her own crazy loud way, and I loved her to bits. This past summer my family and I went to see her and my uncle in California, and that week that I spent exploring Hollywood and Santa Monica is a time I will never forget. She gave me this nickname that kinda stuck for these last few months and she would call me it when I spoke to her, "Karini". At first I found it really weird, and strange but now I don't imagine me being anything else to her.
Weeping may remain for a night, but rejoicing comes in the morning. Psalm 30:5
Today has definitely been a sad day, but we know that she is having the greatest time up there. Greater than anytime she could have had here. No more pain, no more cancer eating her up, no more medication, no more surgery, no more hospital beds, no more not being able to eat..so much that is no longer existent in her. She was a true blessing to me, and to my family.
For this God is our God for ever and ever; he will be our guide even to the end. Psalm 48:14
So, go. Go and tell your aunts you love them. Tell your mom, your sisters, your brothers, everyone. It makes you feel so much better. And while you're at it, tell them God loves them too. Because He does.
