Proverbs 31
29 Many daughters have done virtuously, but thou excellest them all.

30 Favour is deceitful, and beauty is vain: but a woman that feareth the Lord, she shall be praised.

31 Give her of the fruit of her hands; and let her own works praise her in the gates.

To my dear classmate, Willie and the Walker family, I will like to express my deepest condolences. I pray that our Heavenly Father continue to watch over and keep each of you in perfect peace and keep you comforted from this day forward.

Dear Willie, Dwanna and the Walker Family. There is no other work on this earth as important as that of mothers. Next to the work of Christ is the work and hope of every mother on this earth that her child or children will be blessed of God through her nuturing and instruction. Ms. Mae was a powerful influence on your family and community. Her work on earth will continue through you as you teach and reach future generations. May her faith in God and the life she lived be a constant testimony to you that with God all things are indeed possible. I pray now that God through His Holy Spirit will be your constant and forever friend.

I Thess 4:13-18 says, " But I do not want you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest you sorrow as others who have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will bring with Him those who sleep in Jesus. For this we say to you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord will by no means precede those who are asleep. For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord. Therefore comfort one another with these words."

3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Romans 6:3-11

Willie Jr. and Family, I am so sorry for your loss, There is a Balm in Gilead to cure the heart. May God in His infinite wisdom grant you a peace that surpasses all understanding.
