The Bible spoke of these times, it is a directory of life being fulfilled. It use to be that today you’re here, and tomorrow you’re gone, but as time has generated so rapidly, it’s you’re here one moment, and the next you’re gone now. You’ve earned your wings James, go, go fly like an Eagle, the Doves, and even an Angel in the Heavens, rest your body, and soul, S.I.P. where there’s no more pain, sorrow, nor tears, until we meet again at the crossroads… May God’s mercy, peace, and love dwell upon your soul, in the Benevolent, and Mighty Name Of Jesus Christ, Amen <3
Sending sincere condolences to the family. You’re in my thoughts & prayers.
