Someone said to me last Sunday that they didn't like it when people said things like, 'They are in a better place." He went on about things people say to try to be encouraging.
I said, "It really is comforting for me to remember that he is happy now and not suffering. He is free and full of energy and life. He gets to talk to Jesus and have all the hard questions answered too. He truly is in a better place, and I get to see him again one day."
This is all I have to find peace of mind. If I let go of my faith in all this sorrow, then I may not rise above it at all. I don't know how anyone can survive this kind of heartache without faith.
The Bible does not say that we become angels or that we get wings; it says we become higher than the angels and we will rule with Christ! Father God has work for us to do. We are here to choose. We must choose to follow Jesus, live His ways, ask for His wisdom and His strength, and walk in the power of His Holy Spirit to overcome the trials. He will not force His ways on us. We must learn and choose here on earth before we are welcomed into His Kingdom. The Kingdom of Darkness will do everything it can to destroy our lives. Right now, it is hard to fight and hard to believe, but I know He is faithful and will help me through this.
