A Royal Rememberance

But ye are a chosen generation, a ROYAL priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light - 1 Peter 2:9

This morning, if the Lord says the same, I will attend a homegoing celebration for Royal D. Thomas. Royal is my son's (Kory) aunt and my beloved sister-in-law. Our Sovereign Lord healed her of her infirmities on August 2, 2008 and beckoned her to be "absent from the body and present with the Lord." I will always remember the pure joy she was and brought to the masses that came into contact with her. Known as the "kissing bandit," she had a love and light that will never be kindled. During most of her earthly pilgrimage, Royal had a host of challenges that makes her life story unique and her victory over death even sweeter. We commend her family to the keeping care of our Lord and Liberator Jesus Christ, by reminding them of His words "Let not your hearts be troubled, you beleive in God believe also in Me..."(John 14:1)

It was a beautiful homegoing celebration. My deepest Sympathy to the family, Kory, Twonda, and you Pastor Pullam since you were family also for a long time. She is in a much better place. I know she is in her element as she greets and "KISS" all those that welcomes her on the other side.

It is in all things we give God Praise.
