Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths. (Proverbs 3:5-6 KJV)
These were the life verses of S. Rebecca Divine, (affectionately called Doll Eye) Mother, Grandmother, Great-grandmother, Sister, Aunt, Cousin, Friend, Educator, Missionary, Humanitarian, and Servant of the Lord.
In the exercise of His sovereign will, the Lord chose to take her home in her 87th year. As He stated in John Chapter 14:1-3 “Let not let your heart be troubled. Ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you unto myself; that where I am there ye may be also. ” (KJV/NIV). Mother Divine believed, and as a teenager, accepted Jesus Christ as Her personal Savior and Lord. She devoted her entire life to Him. After a very brief illness, she was ushered into the presence of Her Lord and Savior at 3:40 pm on Tuesday, May 28, 2013, to be with Him throughout eternity. May her soul rest in peace.
