Facts To Expect When Selecting 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.
Most people today do not want to hear sentiments such as "he's better off now" or "she's in a better place". Knowing people care goes a long way, but trite, scripted commentary does not generally convey our true sorrow for the pain of mourning friends and family members.
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 people who are not religious, there are many famous quotes available that are not affiliated with any faith. Epicurus, Socrates, and Francis Bacon are just a few who offer thought and words of comfort for those dealing with death. Even Theodor Geisel(Dr. Seuss) has thoughts on the matter.
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.
Always keep in mind, the most important things is to comfort and help bring peacefulness to those who are suffering. Make sure they know they are not alone and that you care about them and their loss.
