is nothing to fear for those who believe in God . . . for it is a natural transition to eternal life.
It is only after one acquires a correct perspective of life
and death that life can be lived to the fullest.
For true believers in God,
"To be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord." 2 Corinthians 5:8
The death of a loved one is a life-changing experience. God sees each tear and
hears each expression of grieving and He knows what a joyful reunion awaits true

Why are you cast down, O my soul? Hope in God. -Psalm 42:11
