Facts To Learn When Selecting Verses For Funerals
Loss of loved ones is a difficult time in any person's life. No matter if the death is expected or not, the pain is enormous for most individuals. Most people want to offer their condolences as well as a shoulder to cry on, but are unsure of the right words to say. It does not matter if the deceased was elderly or very ill, or young and suffered an accident, the bottom line is the same, people are in pain and we want to comfort them. The wealth of available verses for funeral cards can make this easier.
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.
There are many religious verses that are helpful to those with a religious faith. Whether Jewish, Christian, Muslim, or any other religion, there is a great deal of information that will help to lend comfort. Most of these belief systems offer the hope of some happy life after this one has ended. These are excellent scriptures to access in order to help people of faith in healing.
For individuals who are not religious, or who question religion, many famous quotes are available that can help deal with a loss. Many point out the "circle of life", all things have a time and purpose, etc. Many philosophers and writers have a great deal to say on the matter.
Special words for firemen, masons, nurses, doctors, for specific heritage, and much more can be personalized according to the needs of those mourning. Making it personal can be very good for those in pain. They will find comfort in the appreciation of their lost loved one's life work or passion.
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.
