It is you who may rest in peace when a loved one passes. After your long vigil or your sudden shock you can rest in the knowing that they do not suffer and are free of all earthly bonds, save the bond of love, which will always unite you. The so-called “dead” are far from resting. They are free as birds. Some may experience a period of recovery, it is true, and peace is available to all souls, along with the learning that ensues from reviewing their time on earth. What makes all the difference is the love that surrounds the soul in what you know as heaven. May you feel that love in your soul—the part of you that connects all of you always—and rest in peace.
My wife’s grandmother passed away unexpectedly the day before this message of Peace was posted. I recognized the perfect relevance of the message, so I sent the link to it to my mother in law the morning of the funeral. She liked it so much she had my wife read it to everyone during the service. Thank you Suzanne, and thank you Sanaya.
