Finally Friday

John 8:51

Verily, verily, I say unto you, If a man keep my 

saying, he shall never see death.

Helen Greaves

There should be no fear of death, for the death of the body is but a gentle passing to a much freer life.

Sylvia Browne

I know that there is no such thing as death, because our spirit has always been alive and always will be. We are as eternal as God who created us.

Elisabeth Kubler-Ross

Death is simply a shedding of the physical body like the butterfly shedding its cocoon. It is a transition to a higher state of consciousness where you continue to perceive, to understand, to laugh, and to be able to grow

John Welshons

Even in the darkest, coldest, loneliest hours, the sun continues to shine. It’s just that temporarily we can’t see it or feel it.

  I just wanted to say that lately, I have been seeing on facebook that a few of my acquaintances on there have been suffering losses of loved ones or friends. I just wanted to show some support for them and asked that anybody reading this might keep them in their prayers if you pray or just try to be there for them. 

  We all will go through losses in our life but no matter what, those losses can only be completed understood but the person going through it. I just hope that through these tough times, you will allow your friends and family to help you get through it or deal with it. Our lives are constantly dealing with  change. Sometimes those changes are permanent and difficult but you can grow from it if you allow it.

  In these last days, don't be surprised by whats going on. We just "celebrated" the remembrance of 9/11 and all year we remember other tragedies. Unfortunately times are only going to get worse and we will suffer more losses. But people tend to usually care only when it hits close to home. No politician can fix the worlds problems, no religion, no new technology, no war, no grass roots movement etc. The only chance we have is love but there is to much hate in this world.

  I believe that this life is only the beginning and there are greater things to come. No more dying, no more pain and no more tears. You don't have to believe it but hopefully one day you will. No matter how gloomy life is, no matter the tragedies, there is always something positive to be taken from every bad situation no matter how hard it is to find. The question is will you focus on the negative and be consumed by anger, fear and depression or focus on the good before and after. Even when its rains, above the clouds, the sun is always shinning.

  For all those out there going through something right now, just know that your not alone and people love you and will be there for you if you need us to be. God bless you and comfort you these rough days ahead.
