CONDOLENCE
August 27, 2016
To the Family of Donald L Hamilton Jr.
In as much as God has saw fit to relieve the suffering and pain of Donald, we commend you to Him who is all wise and all knowing. We know mere words cannot begin to express healing and will not ease the pain or the loss you now feel.
Be reminded that although death seems final and it ends this life. We, as believers, have hope, faith and trust in knowing, that when this life ends, eternal life begins with Christ the Giver of every good and perfect gift, the Giver of Life. Praise God for the time He gave Donald to us here on this earth and for the opportunities he shared with all of us through Christ’s experience His unconditional love. We are encouraged to think on the good times, the times of joy, and the times of laughter.
The Word of God declares that it is appointed unto man once to die and after death comes judgment. So knowing we all must die, let us choose to live now so that we can inherit eternal life with Christ. Know that God is faithful, just, and a rewarder of those that diligently seek Him. Seek His face, for he is ever present now, and in the days ahead.
God knows there will be sorrow, so He gives us tears to cry. He knows there will be trials when His children ask Him “Why?” Because, He is our Heavenly Father, He will take us by the hand to lead us through the sorrows, we cannot understand. God has all the time we need, He feels the pain we feel, and He, above all else, knows our hearts take time to heal.
Our extended family, please know, even in our absence on this morning, our prayers are with you. May God give you peace for today and hope for tomorrow. Know we will be praying for and with you during this season.
