Have you ever lost someone you love and wondered how life could possibly keep moving without them?
Maybe it’s been years, but you still think about them when something happens that you wish you could tell them about. You still remember the sound of their voice, the things that made them laugh, and the moments you wish you could have back.
Grief has a way of staying with us, even as life continues.
And in Sunday’s message, Pastor Léonce reminded us of something important: God never asked us to pretend that death is okay.
In 1 Corinthians 15, Paul calls death an enemy. And because Jesus rose from the grave, we have a hope that reaches beyond what we can see or experience in this life.
That doesn’t mean the pain of losing someone disappears. It means we can grieve honestly while holding on to the promise that death will not have the final word.
“But in fact Christ has been raised from the dead.” 1 Corinthians 15:20
What a beautiful truth to hold on to, especially when we’re missing someone we love.
