I appreciate the note about burial/cremation. It is not a subject not often addressed these days and I've reached an age to begin thinking on these thing so, I am very thankful for the mention of it here.

Just so you know, conventional burial can be very expensive. You may want to look into 'green burial' services. If there is such a service near you, they can be much more affordable. But it is something you need to make clear before you pass.

What a morbid discussion! 😂

Thank you! Yes indeed but aren’t we thankful the issue doesn’t end here, because of our Savior?

Eternally thankful!

Yes Armen that’s right, and I do trust God completely, there are a few reasons I can see why it was best, But there are still times my heart gets heavy. I don’t let myself dwell on it.

Indeed I struggled, when God ordained I was absent from Mammy’s ( unexpected) last days/minutes . With all the care I was privileged to give her and yet be absent so far, that no matter how I tried, I couldn’t make it to be by her side.

Whilst I accept it was Gods will, truthfully, it still saddens me.

Yes mum. It's hard. But our faith is meaningless unless we trust God and believe what He ordains is best when things go differently than we might have planned.
