I may walk through valleys as
dark as death , but I won't be afraid.
You are with me , and your shepherd's rod makes me feel safe .
You treat me to a feast , while my enemies watch .
You honor me as your guest , and you fill my cup until it over flows.Psalm 23:4-5
You are deeply concerned when one of your loyal people faces death
I worship you, Lord , just as my mother did , and you haved rescued me form the
chains of death .Psalm 116:15-16
As long as we are in these bodies , we are away from the Lord.
But we live by faith , not by what we see .
We should be cheerful , because we would rather leave these bodies and be at home with the Lord. 2Corinthians5:6-8
Our bodies are like tents that we live in here on earth.
But when these tents are destroyed , we know that God will give each of us a place to live .
These homes will not be buildings that someone has made , but they are in heaven and they will last forever.
While we are here on earth , we sigh because we want to live in that heavenly home .
We want to put it on like clothes, and not be naked.
These tents we now live in are like a heavy burden, and we groan.
But we don't do this just because we want to leave these bodies that will die.
It is because we want to change them for bodies that will never die .
God is the one who makes all this possible .
He has given us His Spirit to make us certain that He will do it .2Corinthians 5:1-5
These bodies we now have are weak and can die .
But they will be changed into bodies that are eternal .
Then the Scriptures will come true ,
"Death has lost the battle !
Where is your victory ?
Where is its sting?"1Corinthians 15:54-55
God bless those who grieve.
They will find comfort!Mathew 5:4
God's home is now with his people .
He will live with them , and they will be his own.
Yes, God will make his home among his people.
He will wipe all tears from their eyes , and there will be no more death , sufferings ,
crying , or pain .
These things of the past are gone forever.
Revelation 21:3-4
Jesus then said ," Iam the one who raises the death to life !
Everyone who has faith in me will live , even if they die.
And everyone who lives becuase of faith in me will never die."John11:25-26
