Tell your loved ones you love them today, even if they're gone.
I loved you Mama, John Michael, and Amelia Nicole. Thankful that I know y'all are free of pain, and are with our Heavenly Father. Will see y'all again someday.

Cindy, It broke my heart to read your post. Most of us will have to deal with losing our parents but no parent should have to deal with losing one child must less two.
I can't even imagine what it must be like. Losing my dad when I was 13 almost 40 years ago still affects me today and losing my sweet mom a year and half ago still hurts.
A couple of days ago I was thinking about my dad while driving and got all choked up and tears in my eyes. Then I thought to myself that this was a wonderful tribute to a man who only had 13 years to make an impression on his son and it has been a lasting one.
I will be praying that the Holy Spirit will indeed be a comforter to you as promised.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
