Sophie & Carly, I am so sad to hear about your Mom. She was always so sweet & kind to Sydney & me. I remember being in awe at how she decorated during the holidays! I remember our conversation when she was trying to decide to go to Nursing or Speech Pathology. I was so happy for her when she graduated! Please let me know if I can do anything! Thinking about & praying for you both!

Sophie & Carly,
We are saddened to hear of the loss of your mom. We are praying for you both.
English poet and hymnodist, William Cowper, described grief itself as medicine. Grief cleanses the anguish from our souls and sets us back up on the path of life so we can dance. Grieving is the process God uses to bring us to a place of wholeness. Grieving is His great gift to us. It is a necessary part of our journey. Healing.
Matthew 5:4 Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted.
Psalm 34:18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.
Psalm 147:3 He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.
God Bless,
Felix, Fralin and Gabby Bradshaw
