Do you fear death?
Tuesday, June 5th, 2007I love the trilogy of Pirates of the Caribbean. One thing that echoes in my mind is Davy Jones saying “Do you fear death?” There were so many people willing to serve on his crew to postpone death.
I’m currently reading a series of books about family of seven siblings. The youngest has cancer on her spine. She has the faith that God can heal her, but she also knows that if He doesn’t, she’ll be in a far better place. Though her family believes death is close for her, she’s not afraid.
What about you? Do you fear death? Honestly, I can’t wait for heaven. I’m tired of seeing and experiencing pain and suffering. I’m tired of watching people destroy their lives with drugs. I’m tired of the anger, bitterness, and pain that comes from divorce. I’m tired of watching people destroy their lives because of sexual immorality leading to STDs or unwanted pregnancies.
Do not fear death. There’s something far better than our lives on earth. Christians have heaven to look forward to…
