Final Hug

My final breath on earth has been taken.  I am with my sweet Jesus.  I am healed.  No more suffering, no more pain.  I will give hugs to whom I've promised.

-Krista

  1. 100% permanent healing for Krista but lots of sorrow and pain for those she's left behind. May the God of all comfort give peace and hope in the midst of the tears. Krista's life has been a testimony to many as she demonstrated how to live and finish well in the most difficult circumstances.

  2. I pray that God will sustain your family as they have to go on without your beautiful presence. May God allow your son to remember the feeling of your comforting arms around him and your sweet voice whispering in his ear. You will be truly missed Krista.

  6. Keeping your dear family in our prayers, knowing God is able to hold you both in the palm of His hands. Heaven is so much sweeter, but the pain of the loss of your precious wife and mother only God can comfort. We are all richer for knowing Krista and walking with her. She has seen her reward.

  18. Krista's desire to bring glory to God, and spread His love and message of salvation to everyone He placed in her life, was evident and has influenced so many... I was blessed to have met her and her strong faith impressed and taught me so much.

  21. I just got home from a weekend away, The Lord pressed Krysta, Xhevat and Matteus on my heart yesterday and I prayed extra for you. In the ultimate healing Krysta is home free, dancing with her Savior and receiving her rewards, There is no more pain or sickness of any kind in her heavenly body. I will miss you here Krysta but I will see you again one day and look forward to giving you a big hugg again. Your testimony and faithfulness during your battle has inspired me over and over again, Thank you! I will keep Xhevat Matteus and your parents and the rest of your family in my prayers. I unfortunately am working Saturday so can't come to the memorial service :( I really want to be there.

  24. I went for a bike ride tonight and was in awe of how beautiful the sky was lit up. I got home and heard that Krista was now in heaven and I couldn't help but think how there must be such a celebration going on in her arrival and how the beauty in the sky tonight was just a small reminder to us of the amazing and beautiful welcoming that Krista received from Jesus today.

    Nick and Diane, Sara has given me glimpses into your family's journey. I'm praying you will be able to rest in God's provision of peace, strength and hope. Because you bear your dad's name, Nick, my dad allowed me to attend CSSM Carberry. There I first learned to pray, and now I have the privilege of praying for you in a specific way.
