About This Quote
I find rest for my soul in arms of the Saviour. She was a hopeful girl hopeful to be a wife and a mother to a husband and children. She loved her parents so much, dreaming to have a good marriage and happy family. Her dream was that big that she’s been waiting for her wedding night.
She never dreamed that her wedding night could end up with death. She was only 18 years old when she died. She was not married yet but her family already started to get ready for her marriage.
The whole family was getting ready for the big day when it happened. The young girl got sick and passed away suddenly in her sleep. Her father got angry at the world but her mother did not want him to get mad at everyone nor did she want him to get mad at himself because he wasn’t able to save his daughter from death.
It is because of this selfishness that she chose to be with the Saviour when she died, she chose to give up on life so that she can live forever in her heavenly home with her loved ones in heaven where there is no pain or sorrow or sadness or grief or worry or sadness or death.
