Meditate on These Things
1Corinthians 15:51-52 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1Thessalonians 4:16-17 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
I find comfort in knowing the promises of God. I know without a doubt my beautiful Ashley and our love ones that have went before us has this blessed assurance.
Revelation 21:4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” I do believe in angels And I do know that if our love ones at home in Heaven were able to see and hear the things of earth they truly would have sorrow! We server a jealous God. Deuteronomy 4:24 For the LORD thy God is a consuming fire, even a jealous God. John 5:28-29 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear His voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. But the Apostle John wrote an entire chapter to assure God's people that they are indeed God's people. "These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God: that ye may know that ye have eternal life . . ." (1 John 5:13). Philippians 4:8 Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. I find it of great comfort in knowing God will wipe away my tears; there will be other saints going to be with our Lord, sorrow will continue to be apart of our lives, crying will be comforted only by God’s mercy. God’s grace shall cover our pain, for the former things are still to come. I love and miss my baby girl everyday, each and every moment. Today I’m another day nearer to Home!
