Your funeral! Eternity is forever, out time on earth is temporary! NeedEncouragement.comPlease contact us if you have questions or if you need some encouragement.

We must live with a sense of urgency, understanding that our time on earth is limited. Your funeral can be a real celebration of life, where you leave behind cherished memories instead of regrets. Growing up, I didn’t particularly enjoy attending funerals; they felt somber and dreary to me as a young boy. They gave me an eerie feeling I couldn’t quite comprehend then. However, now, as an adult man, my perspective has shifted. I now find peace in attending funerals because they allow families to gather and share their loved one’s journey through captivating photo boards adorned with pictures of deceased individuals. It’s like being able to relive moments from their lives that might otherwise fade away with time. We must remember that this earthly existence is not our true home; it’s merely a temporary dwelling place where we spend between 70 and more years before passing into eternity.

Let Us Come To Grips With The Idea That We Are Eternal Beings! We All Make Conscious Choices About How We Want To Spend Eternity ~ Whether It Be In Heaven Alongside God Or Apart From Him In Hell If We Haven’t Accepted Jesus Christ As Our Lord And Savior! We Have To Live Life With A Sense Of Urgency. You Only Live Once Here On Earth. Use Your Time Wisely, And Use It To Glorify God!

Your funeral can be a real celebration of life, not a time of regrets! Growing up, I wouldn’t say I liked going to funerals; I felt that they were dull and depressing. I was just a little boy then, but it gave me a spooky feeling. But now, as an adult man, I like to go to funerals. I like the photo boards when the family gathers photos and puts them on whiteboards to share pictures of the deceased man or woman. It is like, in a small way, being about to relive parts of their life that might not even be around to share. Think of it as we will live for eternity, and we can choose whether we will be in heaven with God or in hell apart from Him if we have never accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior! ~ Bill Greguska

John 10:10  The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
