Romans 14:8 NASB "for if we live, we live for the Lord, or if we die, we die for the Lord; therefore whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s."It's never easy to say good bye but it can be "see you later!" Todays verse speaks of death and life, and if we know the Lord, we are always His! Saying good bye to someone, whether it's for a short time or when they pass from this life, can be "see you later"! For the last year or so I was blessed to be with Steve. He had given his life to Christ but shortly after began to fight a battle against cancer. He fought bravely, never wavering in his faith or the love of Christ. He shared how Jesus changed his life. He is now home with Jesus and saying good bye just means I will see him again. Death from this life is never an easy thing to deal with but if we know Christ, it's never goodbye but see you later. I will see Steve again, and if I learn nothing else from Steve's life, it's that no matter what, we need to share Jesus for tomorrow is promised to no one! Please join me in praying for his family - that the comfort of the Holy Spirit may be upon them all! peace, tom
