A Wonderful Way to Explain It
Here's another email I received and I liked it...
A sick man turned to his doctor, as he was preparing to leave the examination room and said,
"Doctor, I am afraid to die. Tell me what lies on the other side."
Very quietly, the doctor said, "I don't know."
"You don't know? You, a Christian man, do not know what is on the other side?"
The doctor was holding the handle of the door; on the other side came a sound of scratching and
whining, and as he opened the door, a dog sprang into the room and leaped on him with an eager show of gladness.
Turning to the patient, the doctor said, "Did you notice my dog? He's never been in this room before. He didn't know what was inside. He knew nothing except that his master was here, and when the door opened, he sprang in without fear.
I know little of what is on the other side of death, but I do know one thing... I know my Master is there and that is enough."

Wow, that is so beautiful. Wonderful email and lovely of you for sharing it.
Thank you so much!
That message in the email is wonderful. The thing with us humans is that when death is at our door, the fear of death is worst than death itself. The fear of not knowing what lies beyond life at that moment can be very frightening . No human has ever conquered death to tell us what lies ahead for us. Only Christ did that. O ye of little faith.
I guess if you don’t believe in God the Master then death is something to worry about.
Thanks for sharing :)

I tolerate this century but I don't enjoy it.

What a beautiful way of expressing death. I couldn't even imagine what people that do not believe in life after death must feel like to them and it's not my place to say they should or shouldn't. All I know it gives me great comfort and hope and when I feel like I'm so down that nobody could understand, I know I DO have someone that does understand and that gives me the courage to get up and start all over again.
Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic! Thanks for this post...Lomax and I heartily agree!
