"Death"

From last night to today, I have been confronted with the death of a beloved sister in Christ, the wife of one of our Shepherds. There is a joy beyond description but a heaviness of heart. That's our human frailty coming out. It reminds us all the reality we face. It speaks to our hearts why we need to be walking, looking toward the Lord each and every day and not being overcome by the matters of this world. One lays down to sleep and arrives in eternity. It's that fast and real.
May God open our eyes as we open our hearts to realize we live in the temporal and that eternity is reality. Everything is set and nothing will be changed. Let's prepare to meet our God!
