Facts You Should Notice When Picking Verses For Funerals
The passing of a loved one is never easy for anyone. Even those who have been ill for a very long time leave loved ones in great pain when they pass. Those who have died unexpectedly leave people in shock as well as mourning. It is difficult for most of us to find the right words to say to those who are suffering in this type of a situation. The many verses for funeral cards can lend some comfort.
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.
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.
People can find many verses aimed at ethnicity, career, age, and much more. There are numerous quotes for the loss of a child. Many prayers and quotes for nurses, policemen, servicemen and woman, Masons, and just about anything a person may need to suit the occasion can be found.
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.
