Karsyn Bell

Last Friday night a 4 year old girl past away due to cancer. She was full of life and loved Jesus with all her being. She memorized prayers and studied her bible. She was a light unto everyone and brought people to Jesus with her smile. Everyone's heart she came into contact with was touched by her love and generosity. This little life will be missed for the rest of time. But now, she is with Jesus, her Savior, and in His arms she will rest. She isn't in anymore pain and she is no longer suffering from her illness. No longer will she have to go to the hospital for tests; be pricked with needles; or have her blood taken for tests. 

Her family and friends will hurt and mourn, but she doesn't want us to cry. She wants us to celebrate. To laugh and not cry, to smile and not frown, to be upbeat and happy not depressed and beaten-down. We won't always know why God decided to take her away, but we know that He has a plan and a purpose and that he needs her. Little Karsyn taught everyone something. To love God, to be happy, to play, to pray, etc. She was a light. And her light hasn't burnt out because her life on earth is through, it still shines bright in the hearts of her loved ones that she is survived by. 

Her younger sister, Cami, is too young to understand what is happening. She tried to play and talk to big sister at the funeral. Karsyn never responded to her chipper baby sister, but Cami never gave up. As she grows older she will understand what happened, and that Jesus needed her for something so amazing that she couldn't quite complete the task on this planet. He needed her in heaven. They loved on each other well. 

Please, if you read this, send out a prayer to the Bell family and friends of little Karsyn. They, and I, could use that right now. To get through the grieving process. Thank you all. 

R.I.P Karsyn -- You are loved.
