“If you’re reading in the newspaper that I am dead. Don’t believe a word of it, I am more alive than ever before.” I borrowed this quote from the great evangelist, D.L. Moody, because I couldn’t think of a better way to give such good news. I am now with my Savior Jesus. I am now in my real home. This body that I have no more use for is dead and will be put in the ground, but I can assure you that I am not there.

Ecclesiastes 12:7 “and the dust returns to the ground it came from, and the spirit returns to God who gave it. “If you want to shed tears, make them tears of joy. For I am rejoicing in heaven. Remember that I am with my Lord and have joined all who have gone before me. Many of the great joys in my life were the relationships that were formed while here on earth. When you read this, I will have taken my last breath here and my next in heaven. Many of you I will see again.  Some I won’t and that is the saddest thing in the world to me.  God has made a provision that “none should perish.” That provision was the sacrifice of His son Jesus Christ. You are all too valuable and cost Him too dearly not to receive that gift. And it is the gift. There is no way we can earn, buy or work our way to heaven. The only way is through faith in Him. John 14:6. The most quoted verse of scripture is John 3:16 “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life” Please let that verse speak to your heart and receive His gift of salvation. Eph. 2:8-10 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. See you in eternity! In His Love

“Let not your heart be troubled: but believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.” John 14:1-3.
