Facts You Should Know When Selecting Verses For Funerals
Funerals are a difficult time for everyone. Whether a person has been lost after suffering a long illness, died tragically in an accident, or has passed away at an old age, most of us have a hard time knowing what is the right thing to say. Many Verses For Funeral Cards can capture the appropriate sentiment of the occasion.
Although people usually have the best intentions, no one wants to hear "he's in a better place" while still in mourning. Add to that, not everyone agrees that the deceased is "in a better place". Some people believe the person is simply dead and gone and they continue missing them. Even those with a belief in an afterlife will not necessarily be comforted by these words. After all, they are still missing their loved one.
Cards for religious people usually rely on scriptures that support the belief of "life after death" in some form or another. For these individuals a great deal is available that can be quoted in order to lend comfort. The end of sinfulness, and end to death, and restoration of lost loved ones offer great hope and comfort to religious individuals. For people of faith, death does not mean they will never see this person again.
Many famous quotes that are not religiously affiliated can also bring comfort. Hans Christian Anderson, Robert Louis Stevenson, and even Theodor Geisel (Dr, Seuss) have quotes that are appropriate for people in mourning.
Verses specifically aimed towards heritage, age, and even career choices, are abundant. Poems for a lost child, native American prayers, Irish toasts, a fireman's prayer, and so much more is available in order to personalize any card with the exact right sentiment for the occasion.
Keep in mind the idea is to bring peace and comfort to mourners. There may not be any way to completely alleviate a person's pain, but there is certainly the opportunity to lend comfort and understanding. Remember, even during our most difficult times in this big world, we are never truly alone.
