Death the inevitable end of man.
Today I went for a burial of a committed sister of my church who pass on, on the 8th of this month that is 8/04/202. Life can be so frustrating. Could you believe that this sister is just 45 years and the most painful part is that she came to the world with full expectations, a lot of dreams but she could not live the life she dreamt of.
The story
Some years back precisely on the 16th day in the month of July 1976 this beautiful damsel was born into the family of late De Godfather edemito sunday as the first child to this family. she grew up with full life on her. Very intelligent and smart as the first child the parent didn't hesitate in sending her to school of her choice. She took her study very serious from her nursery to her higher institution she was brilliant everything went on very smooth.
Until one afternoon when she return from NYSC. National Youth Service Corps with the joy to meet her parent that base in Cross River State Nigeria. Something terrible happened she was involved in a serious accident that affected her spinal cord, her brain, right from that day till her dismiss on earth suffer a lot of pains because of this she couldn't marry but all her siblings got marry and have children but she, she couldn't marry work, all her life she was living in pains and agony.
She couldn't even work alone very strong even though she didn't like people pitting her. But with all this the family still love and care for her. Especially her last sister was so close to her always making her feel among make sure she give her sister the best treat. Even her last sister children has to called her big mummy because she was always there for them, took care of the children as her own when the mum that is her sister is not around she was always there for them.

Today was a very sad and bad day for this family as bid the sister farewell she was committed to her mother earth. I was in the funeral. there is one thing about this sister late miss Udeme edemeito sunday, she was a woman of faith that believe in Christ and stand so firm in the things of God. Despise all that she pass through, she never for one day feel discouraged in the things of God or you will ever hear her complain but all you will hear from her is it is well and she will smile.
So at time when I look at her I will ask my self a question like if someone is in this kind of situation and yet she is encourage and keep smiling and still be committed in God's business what am I that Has everything complete. This always give me encouragement and trigger my faith in God.
So today the sisters and the mother was crying uncontrollably I couldn't hold my tears the was tension even at the cemetery when her body was fully committed to the earth. But who are we to question God nothing takes him by surprise before anything happen, he had already know. All we can say is the Lord knows all things and may the soul of the departed find rest in the Lord.

My prayer right now is may the Lord who is the comforter, comfort this family especially the mother because it is so heart broken to see your child die in your hand and you couldn't do anything to save her life I pray God should comfort the mother and protect her and the last sister that was so close to her and the rest of the siblings.
If money could save someone life this family would have save the sister from dying because if it is money they have but money could not stop her from dying. This is to tell us that money can not buy us life, money can not buy us protection, money can not buy us appetite what give us life, protection and appetite is Christ he is our life when we have him we have life in abundance and we have eternal life so please my brethren let us not live in this world like people without hope forgetting our source but let us live like people with hope and assurance that we have life eternal in him.
Thank you and have a bless rest. I love you all❤❤
