Jesus told her, "I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die like everyone else, will live again.”
In a single week, I attended two funerals. Two mothers had passed away orphaning their children. I was amazed at how the children received this sad event from two different perspectives. One set of children were a set of unsaved children crying at their mother’s death bed without the hope of heaven, feeling that they would never see their mom again. On the other hand were children that were saved by grace and they received their mother’s passing with loneliness, but with hope because of the promise of heaven. That second set of kids reminded me of an African Christian tribe that joyfully refers to their dead as having arrived. Have you made sure that your most precious loved ones are heading to heaven if they should pass? Better yet, have you made sure that you're heading to heaven?
