Dealing with death

How do we handle a love one which has died. Points I like to make to encourage someone who is dealing with this.

Life is a vapor. We are only place on earth for a season, time and space. As I was reminded when we see leaves fallen and their colors are changing we know fall is near or has came. Soon winter time will come. That is how we know when death is upon our love one. The health is fallen and they just don’t have life within them as they use to.

When we see this we know time will br limited, what if you don’t see death coming. How do we deal with that. It will hurt us and made thing for us to be harder as we go day by day.

The bible speaks of life being 3 score and 10. 70 years is the life spand for a person. Some are only here just a moment in time but others lives beyond the age of 70. We don’t understand why this take place, yet God has it all in control.

Whenever we die young or old, what will be your legacy. We have people looking at us. Some consider us to be a role model. Things we do good or bad will be remember by those we leave behind.

To deal with death each person react differently. The key to all of this is to have a strong faith in God. Have a strong family helping you out. Get to know minister who can pray for you.

We know weeping my endure for the night but joy comes in the morning. We might cry over the lost of a love one, but the joy come to know if he or she knows Jesus Christ as thier Lord and Savior than joy comes to us in knowing they have crossed into the promise land.

We do weep because we know that a life is gone and we won’t see them again. Yet to know that they had a great relationship with God. We than know who’s hand they are in now. Yes it is okay to weep. Jesus weep over the death of Lazarus, yet he knew he was going to raise him from the dead.

Many have said he was weeping because Lazarus is about to cone back to this evil world. No matter why Jesus was weeping over lazarus the point was that he was weeping or crying because of Lazarus death.

To deal with death is not to let the death get you down or depress. When you get to the point seek help and pray to God for strength and power to go on each day.

Remember they have completed their journey in life. They may have not done all they wanted to do. We don’t know what a person talent or gift that person might had in them. Yet if they had a full live and did as much as they could by doing what they had than their life was full to them. Some may not have that much but yet they can be rich with God’s mercy and grace.

To deal with death we must see the good side of things and not the bad. Each death we deals with it differently. Yet its up to us if we will stand and survive or continue to feel bad and we end up with a broken heart.
