Nipsey Hussle’s Mother Speaks Out: ‘I Have Perfect Peace’
Nipsey Hussle’s mother recently spoke out regarding her son’s death.
Yesterday (Apr. 9), Nipsey Hussle’s mother gave some encouraging words in a video.
“Don’t fear. When you live your life and you have God on your side. When God dwells inside of you, there’s no fear. Everything is in perfect order. Everything is in the divine perfect order of our creator. And we have perfect peace,” she said.
“I have perfect peace. And I have strength. And I want to lift you up. Please do not stay down. Do not stay stuck. Do not mourn because Nipsey is great. He is the great. And now he is even greater because he has no bounds and no limits. His energy is everywhere. He’s there with you now, and he’s here with me now. And please be encouraged.”
She went on to say that death isn’t to be feared.

“When you walk this earth and you do good deeds for people, and you are loving and kind, those are the things that will show on your face. You will look more beautiful,” she said.
“Ermias looked healthy. He looked clean. He had a glow. He was radiant. And he was so perfect that he had a sweet aroma. He had a sweet aroma. He even smelled good. So please do not fear death. Death is just the beginning of a wonderful world. And I tell myself Ermias liked thrilling things. And now my son knows the secret to the mystery of life.”
