Condolence from Lisa Kellam on July 28th, 2015 8:24 am

Katie,

There are times when we may not understand the plan of God. And this may be one of those times for you. It is at these times when we must trust what we know. That God is a loving and just God. That He is all knowing and knows what’s best. Our challenge comes in being at peace with His decisions. I pray that the Holy Spirit fills you with His peace that surpasses all understanding. And over time you’ll rest in the memories that He allowed you to make with your sister. God bless and keep you and your family strong. I’ll be praying for you.

Be at peace with God.
Lisa (Kellam)
