Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?
JOHN 11:25-26
I’ve known Jesus my entire life. But never have I grasped the true hope that is found in Him,
Because no one understood death better than Jesus. He came, lived a perfect life and DIED a horrific death to save us from our sins.

So when death comes knocking, and wipes your world void of what once was, turn to the Prince of Peace, who reigns victorious. In Christ, death has no sting.

Dear God, I praise you that even in death, you provide hope and comfort through your unchanging Word and calming presence. In Jesus’ name, amen.
