Call Home

Todays thought concerns the below described where folks are being buried with cell phones.

Would I want a cell phone in my casket? It would not matter.
The dead body there would not care.
The everlasting soul would not care.
If the Creator had an overwhelming desire for me to contact the living, he would provide the methodology. The cell phone would be useless.

The Communion of Saints allows all believers to be one in Christ. There is a physical separation upon death, but there is great joy in our reuniting with our loved ones through our prayer intentions on earth who can and will intercede for us. Upon our own death, we continue in the Communion of Saints and join our loved ones in Christ.

THE BURNING BUSH - Home of the Burning Bush Devotional: "There is a new phenomenon that is making its way across the globe. People are being buried with their cell phones. In South Africa, it was reported that a funeral home will actually include several batteries just in case one runs down. In some places it would appear the desire is for the recently departed to be able to actually make use of the phone if possible. In other places, it is simply the placing of something meaningful in their life to be with them. I have seen many different personal items placed in a casket with a loved one and it can be a very touching thing to see. However, if the body is to be cremated make sure you remove the battery from the phone because they will explode when heated."
