The Lordis my shepherd; I shall not want.He makes me to lie down in green pastures;He leads me beside the still waters.He restores my soul;He leads me in the paths of righteousnessFor His name’s sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,I will fear no evil;For You are with me;Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies;You anoint my head with oil;My cup runs over.Surely goodness and mercy shall follow meAll the days of my life;And I will dwell in the house of the LordForever.
2 Corinthians 4:17–18 NKJV
For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
For as much as it pleased a righteous God in His mercy to take back unto Himself the soul of our beloved Gwendolyn Elliot, we therefore commit her body to the ground…
-Earth to earth, ashes to ashes, dust to dust…
-Fulfilling the saying in Ecclesiastes, which is written…”
Ecclesiastes 12:7 NKJV
Then the dust will return to the earth as it was,And the spirit will return to God who gave it.
