There is Hope

If it were not for the Gospel,  my life would seem so unfair. The grave would
be the end of it all,  That there would be nothing later, after I am gone. I would
only be existing now.  No consequences. Just darkness.  The why's, need not be
answered. But still asked.
In this type of thinking I was pondering in the night, almost all night in fact. My
human nature of missing someone that has passed. Not believing they are gone
still, was finally sinking in. It has been just over a year.
If it were not for the Gospel in my life, indeed this mourning could go on forever
I would think. I remember when I was working ICU. And many people had passed
away or I like to refer  it as "went home to be with Father."
But one night comes to my mind clearly. It still makes me sad to remember the
cries of the family when their loved one passed away. I had heard many cryings
before but this one was truly a mourning and whaling cry. That death had came
and the dirt was ready to cover them all up.  There cries were piercing so much
that I could hear that hope had been lost.  How sad to think this way. But many
people do.
I have gone to my other family members funeral and the friends of my loved one
would come up to me and ask" how can you handle this so well"  you seem too
have joy?
A good question. I tell them it is the light of Jesus Christ. He gives us hope and
promises us we will return to him.

JOHN 14: 1-3
"Do not let your hearts be troubled". You believe in God: believe also in me. My
Fathers house has many rooms: if that were not so, would I have told you that I am
going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I
will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.

I have since of Peace knowing that there is, a place in the after life. I believe in
it when my Savior Jesus Christ tells me there is a place for me in his mansion. He
says he has "many" rooms.  I know without a doubt that my loved one will be seen
again, touched again, and be giving hugs.
 This life is a school away from our Heavenly home. We came here to learn. To be
tested. Even Jesus Christ himself came to earth to be tested. Working on that grade
every day requires lots of study. It is up to us to receive a good grade. All test are not
easy. Some can make you feel so very lost, but having that connection to our Heavenly
Father can ease such challenges in our life.

JOHN 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever 
believeth in him shall not perish, but have everlasting life

That scripture verse there shouts out such a wonderful promise. One that I can surely
believe in. Everlasting life is that peace inside. This body we have on earth is just
a body. We need it to house our spirits while on earth. It must  grow old here. But
just knowing that the young spirit  feel  is still chugging along.
Have you ever said "even though I am getting old, I still feel young?" I often had wondered
that myself, but then my eyes were opened.
There is HOPE in this world. Their is a place in the heavens waiting for us to go back home.
We are not lost, though it might seem so during our many challenges we will have to face.
So during those times of a loved one that has gone home before you, rest assured that they
are safe. That you WILL see them again.  Just knowing this will help you and give you the
peace you need, not only for yourself, but to others in your family and even those of
acquaintance.  May knowing that our loved ones will be seen again give you the hope and
peace you need in your life.  Till the morrow. Be blessed
