Saying Goodbye

Goodbyes are not easy. Especially when you vividly recall the last time you saw  and spoke to a loved one while at the funeral of the family Matriarch.   Now I'm grieving the loved one's death only nine months later. Life is so fragile.

David stated in 1 Samuel 20:3c (NIV) Yet as surely as the LORD lives and as you live, there is only a step between me and death.” Every day death draws nearer and nearer to the living. David’s statement rings louder day after day when you lose someone dear to you, you feel as if a part of you dies with them. 

Death is a result of when sin entered  the world when Adam and Eve disobeyed God.  Genesis 2:17 (NIV) but you must not eat from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, for when you eat from it you will certainly die." 

A life  in Christ gives us HOPE when we say Goodbye in life as well as in death.
For my Father’s Will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise them up at the last day.” John 6:40 (NIV)

And He that sat upon the throne said, "Behold, I make all things new". (Revelation 21:5a) (KJV)
