Have you lost someone you deeply cared about or loved? Is someone you deeply care about or love seriously ill and possibly going to pass soon?
The Bible gives us advice on how to handle that situation. No, it is not what so many have said for so long: Don't show emotion and just get over it. That is ridiculous.
The Bible tells us it is okay to grieve but we do not have to do it like the World does. We can experience Hope and Joy while also grieving. How? Why?
Because if we know that person is or was in a Relationship with Jesus of Nazareth, and we are as well, then we know we will see them again. Very Soon. When our Body dies, falls asleep, it is but a temporary situation. And I am not talking about Ghosts. Rather at that moment, our Soul and Spirit go either to stand in the Presence of the God who loves us more than life itself or straight to Hell to await the Final Judgment. For those who are in Christ, we know we will join Him. Then one day all who have died will be bodily resurrected just as was. That is our Promise. They are not gone forever. Just gone ahead. So rejoice that their Earthly Suffering is over and they are waiting for you in Paradise.
At the same time, we need to understand that before God created the Heavens and the Earth He predestined when every single person who would ever live would be born and when they would die. Someone's death may come as a surprise or even a shock to us. But not to God. That is why it is so important that we take advantage of every opportunity to make it right with someone we are estranged from or who we have been putting off seeing and speaking to. We may not be given another chance. I learned that this week anew. Don't make the same mistake.
Please plan to join A Voice Crying in the Desert this week in for our first Outreach of the Season. We will be at starting at 7 PM Wednesday. Then the following week we will be in . Come experience the Hope and Love of God. If you are looking for a , this is your chance to see what God has for you.
