Grief

God creates faith in the human heart the same way he created the world. He found nothing and created something.
2 Corinthians 5:8
All death can do to the believer is deliver Him to Jesus.
Death for a Christian is to fall asleep in the arms of Jesus and waking up and finding out that you’re home.
Think not that a long period intervenes between the instant of death and the eternity of glory. When the eyes close on earth they open in heaven.
Luke 23:39-43
Today you will be with me in paradise is the whisper of Christ to every dying saint.
I have never heard a dying believer regret that he was a Christian.
The reason that I am here today is not because in my darkest moments I held on to God. It is because in my darkest moments He held on to me. I am not here because I am faithful but because He is.
Death is no punishment to the believer: It is the gate to endless Joy.
