A friend of my father's is dying of cancer. Well, so is he sort of. But she's dying sooner it seems.
What is it to Die? Sounds scary doesn't it? But is it? When we die do we END being? I rather doubt it myself. But I'm a Christian of faith so I can't say as how it overly worries me.
I'm going in for minor surgery on Saturday for an abdominal hernia. No big deal, yet it is surgery if something goes seriously wrong I could die. Phhptt. And I would care why?
God's got my back, always has, always will. It's one of his promises to us. That he is always with us. No worries.
Death is not an end. In a lot of ways, it's a beginning. A new world, a new life. More like moving to a new place than an end of anything.
I'm getting ready to move to FL to be closer to my family. But it's not like I won't still have folks here in MD that know me.
We humans are such hard minded creatures. "If it's one thing then it can't be another thing!". Of course it can! We live and move and have our being in God. And there is nothing outside nor beyond God. So what have we to worry over in what seem to be the little or the big things of this world?
There are times when I look forward to not having to deal with the pettiness of this life. Look forward to the next room. Not that I'm in a rush, I've yet things to learn here. But when the time comes. I look forward to the wonder of looking through the glass in light and not in darkness.
Just me again.
John.
