"SURRENDING:
I've learned that Surrendering to God doesn't mean the pain stops right away. It means trusting Him enough to let His plan unfold, even when it hurts. Surrender isn't pretending you're not hurting, its choosing to sit in the pain with faith that God is using it to prepare something far better than you could ever plan for yourself."
Arrangements entrusted to Thrash and Sons Funeral Home (706) 637-8791.
