Esther Sabbe Obituary
Esther (Cole) Sabbe has gone home to be with her Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and her husband, Butch, who is already in heaven. She rejoices in His presence because of what Jesus did on the cross, His death by shedding His blood for her redemption. She can live in His eternal kingdom because of His resurrection from the dead. Glory be to the Lord!
Left yet on this earth to one day join her in the presence of the Lord are her children, Todd (Jackie) and Linda (Mark, who is already in heaven); her grandchildren, Amanda Wolford, Jessica (Rick) Stoner, and Tyson (Cheri) Sabbe; and great-grandchildren, Mckenna, Liesl, and Lilly.
She prays that all her friends, family and acquaintances will join her in heaven, as she reminds us, Jesus is "the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one comes to the Father except through Him". One must believe with their whole heart and confess Jesus with their lips, knowing He is the only way to receive the glory of eternal life with Him. He has justified us in the cross by the shedding of His blood; He sanctifies you in your daily living by the power of the Holy Spirit, and then upon our earthly death, we are glorified into His heavenly home. Hold fast to the truths of the Gospel, believe in the Lord Jesus Christ, and you will be saved.
"And I shall dwell in the house of the Lord forever!" Psalm 23:6
Praise the Lord for His love, mercy and grace towards us all.
