He Lives (Jesus) - So She Lives!
By: Robert A. Searles
In memory of my beloved wife of sixty six years - Joanne
She is not dead, but is very much alive and finally at home with Jesus where she so much wanted to be. No more dementia; no more knee problems; no more stomach problems; no more cares, worries or problems of any kind . She is young again enjoying the bliss and splendors of Heaven - while waiting to receive her brand new glorified, resurrected body - and waiting for me and her children and grand children to join her which was her lifelong prayer that the family circle in Heaven would be unbroken.
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16. She believed in him - so was her confession to God, to me, and to many others to whom she presented the gospel and tried to persuade to believe.and to be saved. We can therefore know that she lives and is safe in the arms of Jesus.
"For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven. If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked. For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life. Now he hat hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit. Therefore we are always confident,knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord: (for we walk by faith, not by sight:) We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. Wherefore we labor,that,whether present or absent,we maybe accepted of him. For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ : that every one may receive the things done in his body,, according to that he hath done , whether it be good or bad." . 2 Corinthians 5:1-10.
