A blogger friend posted last week about having a "week of death." A few people she knew who had passed away. Since last Thursday it has also been one like that for us.
First, Joy's brother was killed in Afghanistan fighting the war we are in. (I hope you always remember that MANY were killed for your freedom that you experience each day.)(see Jennifer's blog for more info.)
Second, a coworkers father passed away Wednesday night and early this morning one of our church members passed away.
It is always sad to experience death but one thing that is comforting is that I know each of these people knew Jesus as their personal savior and is now at home with their Father in Heaven feeling no more sickness, no more pain!
So, it may have been a "week of death" here on earth but it was a "week of LIFE" in Heaven!!! Praise God!
When we all get to heaven, what a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all see Jesus we will sing and shout the victory!
