What To Notice When Picking Funeral Cards Verses

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.

It is generally not helpful to tell a mourning loved one that their friend or relative is in a better place now. We must keep in mind that not all have the same belief system. Not all people believe death is "a better place". It is better to steer clear of this sort of statement. The most important thing to do is let these individuals know that you understand their pain and share their sorrow.

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.

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 remember, the purpose of cards for funerals is to bring comfort to those in mourning. The most important thing to convey is that we care, we understand, and we are available if and when we are needed.
