Great Loss

I just received news this afternoon that my friend Cassie passed away. My heart is so sad for us here who grieve her loss, but I know that she is with Jesus right now, and is in no more pain and has never been happier!!! Nothing compares to the glory she is in right now, nothing.

We will miss her sweet smile and her incredible style. Most of all, just her. She was one of the kindest people. Please remember her parents, sister and all of her family and friends that loved her so much. Thank you for praying.

Father,
You are God alone, and in my sorrow I don't understand, but in my Spirit I know she is with you and she is whole. You are awesome God and I praise You. Thank you for allowing me to have known this sweetheart of a girl. And thank you that our lives touched in such a special way here on this earth. I love you Father. Please comfort her dear parents in her loss.
Thank you Jesus, Amen

  2. Dawn,

    I'm very sorry to hear about this. Will be praying for her family as well as for you and her other dear friends.

    Through many dangers, toils and snares,
    we have already come.
    T'was grace that brought us safe thus far,
    and grace will lead us home.

    When we've been there 10,000 years,
    bright, shining as the sun.
    We've no less days to sing God's praise,
    Than when we first begun.


    Hope the familiar words of "Amazing Grace" will bring peace and minister to your heart during this difficult time.

    Blessings,
    Laura
